Site Event/Activity record ESF22207 - Geophysical survey, Barnham Cross Water Treatment Works to Little Whelnetham Reservoir

PROJECT DETAILS A geophysical (magnetometer) survey was carried out at four locations along the proposed route of a new treated water main which will connect Barnham Cross Water Treatment Works to Little Whelnetham Reservoir. Three of the survey areas are devoid of any anomalies of archaeological potential. However, anomalies indicative of extensive archaeological activity have been identified in the area south of Ixworth. These anomalies are thought to locate features or activity associated with the adjacent Roman fort, a scheduled ancient monument, and Roman road.
