Title Geophysical Survey at Brick Kiln Lane, Mansfield, Nottinghamshire
Author/Originator
Date/Year 2022

Abstract/Summary

A magnetometer survey of 6.8 hectares of land off Brick Kiln Lane, Mansfield has not recorded any magnetic responses that could be interpreted as being of definite archaeological interest. Strong ferrous anomalies in Area 6 could be due to spreads of modern debris or just possibly associated with brick making or coal mining. A single uncertain negative response likely marks the route of a land drain, and several uncertain pit-like anomalies are probably due to deeply buried ferrous debris. A former field boundary, land drains plus ridge and furrow ploughing are visible in the dataset. A modern track has also been detected.
