Summary

Vis=6/3/1995 (emafu) magnetic susceptibility readings in this and the adjacent field to s (st10721427) suggests a spread of slag which ignores the hedge boundary between them. The highest readings were in the n field on the ne edge of the ridge that runs n-s across the fields. The ground here is very hard to plough because of the amount of slag. This area may represent a slag dump or a smelting site with a corresponding slag dump (ea).
