The site is located 0.2km northwest of the centre of Elston, on the North side of Elston Lane. The magnetic survey was carried out using a dual sensor Grad601-2 Magnetic Gradiometer manufactured by Bartington Instruments Ltd. Readings were taken at 0.25m centres along traverses 1m apart. This equates to 3600 sampling points in a full 30m x 30m grid. The Grad 601 has a typical depth of penetration of 0.5m to 1.0m although a greater range is possible where strongly magnetic objects have been buried in the site. Two northwest to southeast parallel positive linear anomalies were recorded in the southern half of the site. These were c. 5.1m apart and possibly represent parts of a trackway crossing the site. The survey also recorded evidence of ridge and furrow agriculture across the majority of the site. The furrows were c. 6m apart probably dating to the medieval/post-medieval period. One possible curvilinear feature was also recorded, and could be related to the two linear anomalies. If so, it may form part of an enclosure associated with the proposed trackway. However, due to the alignment of the furrows, possibly masking some of it, it is difficult to interpret from the geophysics alone.
