NS 57163 51915 A geophysical survey was conducted, 5–9 June 2017, on The Orry as part of a programme of community engagement. Four areas, covering c9200m² in total, were surveyed with a combination of resistivity and/or magnetic gradiometry. The resistivity survey confirmed the findings of a 2011 magnetic survey in two areas. The gradiometry surveys recorded an area of complex, amorphous archaeology adjacent to the site of The Orry Cotton Mill and a concentration of linear features with no clear inter-relationships in the vicinity of the Glebe Field.
