Location:

The East Oxford Archaeology and History Project conducted 1.4 hectares of gradiometer survey on the playing fields of Larkrise Primary School and St Gregory the Great School in June 2012. High levels of magnetic ‘background noise’ caused by both surface and subsurface highly magnetic items made the identification of genuinely archaeological magnetic anomalies very difficult. T

The East Oxford Archaeology and History Project conducted 0.04 hectares of gradiometer survey on land immediately to the south east of St Michael’s CE Primary School, Marston Road, Oxford. Interference from ferrous reinforcing in a nearby area of concrete hard-standing caused magnetic interference across much of the small survey area. Several strongly magnetic signals probably
