GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY AT WALTON-LE- DALE, LANCASHIRE, 1983.
Author(s): A D H Bartlett
The Roman industrial site at Winery Lane, Walton-le-Dale appears to be a fragment of a once larger site eroded by shifting river channels. Geophysical tests were made to discover whether the Roman features were detectable, and also whether the subsoil of the site could be distinguished from the surrounding areas of post-Roman silting.The site has been exposed to modern disturbances whichcreated difficult conditions for the survey. Some positive results were achieved, especially in identifying areas of uniform silting, but further work would be needed to delimit the site completely.
