THE COMPOSITION AND CONSERVATION POTENTIAL OF THE CHARRED STRUCTURAL TIMBERS FROM THE HADDENHAM LONG BARROW, NORTH YORKSHIRE
Author(s): Andy Payne
A Magnometer survey was undertaken on cultivated land containing cropmarks of Romano-British features threatened with destruction from sand quarrying. The survey aimed to ascertain whether any further features of potential archaeological interest were present, thus assisting the program of archaeological recording and research being carried out in advance of the mineral extraction. In addition to locating the features known from APs the survey detected a separate, and possibly earlier and enigmatic phase of activity comprising a very widespread pattern of repetitive linear anomalies. The cropmarks appear only to reflect the later presence of Romano-British field systems and trackways.
