Mount Grace Priory, East Harlsey, North Yorkshire: Report on Geophysical Surveys, November 2023

Author(s): Megan Clements, Andy Payne

A magnetometer (0.4ha) and earth resistance (0.36ha) survey were conducted at Mount Grace Priory, Staddlebridge House, Mount Bank, Northallerton, at the request of the English Heritage Trust in anticipation of planning application for a car park extension and to investigate the possible location of the medieval manor of Bordelbi. The surveys have predominantly found evidence of former agricultural activity in the form of ridge and furrow cultivation. Additional anomalies suggestive of a buried service, possible burning or industrial activity and anomalies likely relating to the construction of the current car park have been identified.
