Dorchester Bypass, Dorset: Report on Geophysical Survey, 1987

Author(s): Paul Linford

Magnetometer surveys were carried out at five points along the proposed route of the Southern Dorchester bypass, in conjunction with excavation by the Trust for Wessex Archaeology, to assess the extent of the threat to buried archaeological remains. In all areas response to the technique was poor and little information about the location of possible features was recovered. Soil samples were also taken for magnetic susceptibility analysis but these results were unremarkable.
