Description

September 2018. Geophysical survey. The survey at North Weald Basset has not identified any anomalies of definite archaeological provenance. A number of responses of uncertain origin have been detected and they could have archaeological, natural or agricultural explanations. Former field boundaries visible on historic maps have been identified as well as several infilled ponds and land drains. A modern underground service has been mapped, while the remaining responses are a result of ferrous disturbance. <1>
