LING HOWE LONG BARROW, WALKINGTON, HUMBERSIDE, REPORT ON GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY, 1989
Author(s): Paul Linford
A geophysical survey was carried out at the site of the long barrow of Ling Howe near Walkington, Humberside to complement information obtained from an excavation by John Dent in 1984. Magnetometer and resistivity surveys successfully detected the long barrow's side ditches which had already been noted as crop marks. Three pit-type anomalies were also detected within the barrow and one of these had a fill that was magnetically similar to the side ditches possibly suggesting that it originated at a similar date in the past.
