Title Newington Quarry, Misson, Nottinghamshire: Geophysical Survey and Archaeological Trial Trenching
Author/Originator
Date/Year 2015

Abstract/Summary

A geophysical (magnetometer) survey, covering approximately 15.4 hectares, was carried out on land at Newington Quarry, near Misson, Nottinghamshire. This identified anomalies consistent with former agricultural practice, specifically former field boundaries. There followed a scheme of archaeological evaluation by trial trenching which targeted the geophysical anomalies as well as apparently blank areas. Both the geophysical survey and the subsequent trial trenching identified the archaeological potential of the site as very low.
