Full Description
The high resistance area to the north-east of this (down- slope) has been interpreted here as a possible large area of deposited pot-boiler stones.
The area of the pot-boiler stone spread can clearly be seen and has a well defined extent and apparent shapes within it.
The suggestion here is that this whole area of the hill may be covered in archaeological deposits (pot-boiler stones) which can be seen to have altered the shape of the hill, forming the ‘middle’ slope angle.
