Activities

Project (1993)

NT63SW 45 621 344

NT621 344. In 1993 K Clark from the Newstead Research Project surveyed South Whitrighill. This site is currently registered in the NMRS as NT63SW 45. Resistivity printouts suggest that the enclosure is single ditched and D-shaped with two possible adjoining extensions. Gaps appear in the enclosing ditch to the W and E but it is unclear whether these represent entrances. Magnetometry printouts suggest that the enclosure had an entrance to the SE. Running perpendicular from this enclosure is a high magnetic linear anomaly that continues E past the boundary of the survey area.
