Full description

Edwards, M. + Trick, S., 2020, Land at Hartnoll's Farm, Tiverton Devon: Magnetometer Survey (Report - Survey). SDV364453.

A magnetometer survey was selected to provide a relatively fast and cost-effective evaluation of any buried archaeology across the Survey Area. 22 anomaly groups were identified of which 21 were characterised as representing possible buried archaeological deposits.

Anomaly Groups 5, 6, 9 and 11 are linear and rectilinear positive anomalies manifest in strongly geometric forms similar to anomalies previously detected and excavated in this locale (Cotswold Archaeology 2015). Probably manifest as shallow ditches, possibly marking out an early field system.
