REPORT ON THE GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY AT MORNINGTON HOUSE FARM, GOSBERTON, LINCOLNSHIRE

Author(s): M A Cole

Magnetometer survey was undertaken at Mornington House Farm, Gosberton, Lincs. in response to a request from the Fenland Management Project (FMP). Fieldwalking had discovered a surface scatter of Saxon material, including 8 lava querns, and aerial photography indicated the presence of an enclosure near these finds. The aim of the geophysical survey was to attempt to map any buried archaeological features in advance of a programme of trial trenching by the FMP. The results were disappointing, however, and only very limited evidence of the Saxon activity subsequently revealed by excavation was detected by the magnetometer.
