REPORT ON THE GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY AT CROWLINK ROUND BARROW, EAST SUSSEX, APRIL 1998

Author(s): Neil Linford

A geophysical survey was conducted over the location of a suspected Bronze Age round barrow at Crowlink, E. Sussex threatened by coastal erosion of the chalk cliff on which it sits. Magnetic survey of the site successfully revealed a series of significant anomalies related to associated barrows to the N and a two-phase pattern of field systems. Unfortunately, the response in the immediate vicinity of the threatened barrow was obscured by the presence of intense magnetic disturbance possibly related to wartime activity at the site. A more limited earth resistance survey was also undertaken and revealed additional anomalies apparently related to the raised mound of the barrow.
