REPORT ON MAGNETIC SUSCEPTIBILITY SURVEY, FARTHING DOWN, COULSDON, SURREY

Author(s): Neil Linford

A number of subsurface soil samples were recovered from two extant earthwork features along the central ridge of Farthing Down, Coulsdon, Surrey for subsequent magnetic measurements. The values obtained for the volume magnetic susceptibility of the samples were then used to estimate the character of magnetic anomaly that these features would create, to aid both the interpretation of the disappointing 1991 magnetometer survey and improve the provision of advice regarding the use of geophysics in evaluation of this site.
