Description

A geophysical (magnetometer) survey covering approximately 6 hectares was carried out on agricultural land on the south-western edge of Copmanthorpe, near York, to inform the determination of an outline planning application for a proposed housing development. The survey has identified linear anomalies indicative of medieval or post-medieval ridge and furrow cultivation throughout the site and 19th century field boundaries. No anomalies of archaeological potential have been identified by the survey. On the basis of the geophysical survey the archaeological potential of the site is considered to be low.
