BLAGDEN COPSE, HURSTBOURNE TARRANT, HANTS. REPORT ON GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY , AUGUST 1990.

Author(s): Andy Payne

The purpose of this geophysical survey of a small Iron Age earthwork complex in Hampshire was to provide supplementary evidence to that obtained by topographic survey and limited excavation. The site is being assessed as part of the Danebury Environs Project. In the event, only partial magnetometer coverage could be achieved, owing to vegetation cover, and the magnetic response from other parts of the site was interrupted by recent disturbance. Some features were detected, however, confirming both the lay-out of the main earthwork enclosure and that this does not contain evidence for intensive settlement. Some evidence for later cultivation was also tentatively identified.
