Geophysical surveys of the fields around Contin church has revealed a series of below-ground archaeological remains. These comprise probable field boundaries and trackways, and other agricultural features, with – tantalisingly – possible buildings and structures south of the church.
These exciting results are summarised in this poster, with more detail in the final report.
Our next steps are to find funding to do further ground surveying, and to dig some test pits to see first-hand what the various features might be.
