REPORT ON THE GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY AT CALLESTICK VEOR, CORNWALL, REPORT ON THE GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY, 1997
Author(s): Neil Linford
A magnetometer survey was conducted at Callestick Veor, Cornwall, in response to a request from the Cornwall Archaeological Unit to investigate archaeological activity in the vicinity of the known 'round' enclosure at the site. The specific aim of the survey was to provide a broader context for the limited geophysical survey and excavation results obtained from the W of the monument prior to the construction of the Engelly to Sevenstonemile section of the Cornwall Spine Water Main. Despite the interference caused by the presence of the water pipeline a wealth of significant magnetic anomalies were revealed. Whilst the majority of these anomalies are associated with the 'round' enclosure there is tentative evidence for the presence of further Bronze Age dwellings to the N of the monument.
