Abstract/Summary
Report presents the results of a programme of geophysical (gradiometer)survey carried out by Oxford Archaeotechnics on a potential new school site at Lenthay Road, Sherborne.
The work clarified the results of a previous topsoil magnetic susceptibility survey of the site, indicating a probable modern origin for an earlier anomaly. It also identified a possible 'ring feature' with as diameter of just less than 20 metres in the northeast corner of the site.
Note: An additional gradiometer survey was carried out on this site in late January 1995, on land immediately to the south east and east. The report for this work is listed seperately.
