Description

Magnetometry and magnetic susceptibility surveys were carried out on land around The Oaks in Whaddon on proposed development site. Most anomalies were thought to be natural, though traces of ridge-and-furrow were picked up, as were some linear features, particularly around The Oaks that may be the remains of a previous enclosure boundary around the farm. NGR to The Oaks (B1).
