WARDY HILL, CAMBRIDGESHIRE REPORT ON GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY, 1993
Author(s): M A Cole
Geophysical survey was undertaken at Wardy Hill, Cambridgeshire in response to a request from the Cambridge Archaeological Unit. Recent FMP excavations at the Coveney ringwork suggest that this defended enclosure is only part of a larger complex extending down from nearby Wardy Hill. Cropmarks on the hill appear to relate to the excavated outworks of the Coveney ringwork. The aim of this survey was to investigate the Wardy Hill field in an attempt to locate any archaeological features that may be associated with the ringwork. Whilst resistivity survey was ineffective, magnetometer survey successfully revealed a pattern of linear features, probably enclosures. Although there is some common alignment with the nearby 'Short Causeway', the relationship between these features and the ringwork remains unresolved.
