BECKFOOT, Cumbria: Report on Geophysical Surveys, October 2005
Author(s): Louise Martin
A geophysical survey was undertaken over the suspected site of a Roman milefortlet and cremation cemetery in a dune-system on the Cumbrian coast that is under serious threat of erosion. The magnetometer survey recorded evidence of burning, but no other significant features. The earth resistance survey revealed some areas of high resistance, but the patterning of these was not unambiguous enough for any causative features to be confidently identified.
