NT 192 769 Ground resistance and magnetometry survey (DES 2004, 53) was augmented by further magnetometry, with readings taken at closer intervals. Lines of magnetic anomaly correlated both with the resistive linear 'garden' features aligned on North Berwick Law, and with those on the Roman alignment. Some isolated significant magnetic anomalies, c 2m square, could represent kiln and metalworking sites in this NE vicus area of the Roman fort.
