HY22NW 48 2462 2810.
A resistivity survey was carried out in the area centred HY 2465 2808 in 1978. The dot-density diagram indicates areas of comparatively high resistance which corresponded to the features noted on HY22NW 61 and HY22NW 62. An additional area of high resistance was noted at the NW end of the survey area (HY 2462 2810), but this area was not excavated. (For results, see illus. 46.)
