Site Event/Activity record ESF30702 - Geophysical Survey - Redisham Hall Farm, Ringsfield Solar

This geophysical survey was completed using a Sensys FMG650/3 system. Readings were recorded at a resolution of 0.01 nT and data collected with a traverse interval of 1 m and a sample interval of 0.25 m. Several, unrecorded boundary ditches of likely medieval to post-medieval origin have been identified aligned broadly parallel to further recorded boundary features illustrated in historical Ordnance Survey (OS) maps (1830’s –1880’s) and (1888 –1915). Anomalies indicating areas of disturbed ground are also noted within Field 6 and correspond to the positions of two former ponds illustrated on historical OS maps of the same provenance. The remaining anomalies are limited to responses caused by modern activity such as agricultural trends, modern land drains as well as numerous ferrous ‘spikes ’ located sporadically throughout the Site and have likely been caused by modern and or agricultural waste within the subsoil.
