Full description

Wessex Archaeology, 2015, Land Off Tithebarn Lane, Redhayes, Broad Clyst, Exeter, East Devon: Gradiometer Survey (Report - Geophysical Survey). SDV361435.

A detailed gradiometer survey was conducted over land at Tithebarn Lane, Redhayes, Exeter, Devon (centred on 297600, 093800). The project was commissioned by CgMs Consulting with the aim of establishing the presence, or otherwise, and nature of detectable archaeological features in support of a planning application for the site as residential housing development consisting of 412 new homes.

Circular anomaly interpreted as possible archaeology as the feature has much weaker geophysical response compared with the circular anomalies in the south. The feature may describe a barrow of c.25 metres in diameter.
