SPONG HILL, NORFOLK. GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY, 1986.

Author(s): Andrew David

Following earlier work in 1979, this report describes magnetometer and magnetic susceptiblity surveys carried out at the Anglo-Saxon and multi-period site at Spong Hill, near Dereham, Norfolk, in 1986. Extensive magnetometer coverage of the ground around and to the north of excavations on the site was unable to detect archaeological features to any useful degree owing to poor magnetic contrasts in the soil. Topsoil magnetic susceptibility measurements over a wide area of the site did, however, reveal variations that may relate to the presence of early settlement.
