Description
A geophysical survey of a possible Neolithic mortuary enclosure. The survey aimed to pinpoint the enclosure and clarify the nature of the features visible on the aerial photograph. The magnetometer survey failed to locate the enclosure ditches, but a few features of potential interest were pinpointed and these would benefit from further examination if excavation work is carried out at the site.
