Ashampstead Common, Ashampstead, Berkshire. Report on geophysical survey, 1993

Author:
Linford, P
Abstract:
A geophysical survey was carried out around where a medieval pottery kiln was discovered during landscaping near a field boundary. No anomalies were revealed that could definitely be interpreted as kilns, although two features of the correct size and field strength were detected. The most striking anomalies were a random scatter of amorphously shaped areas of magnetic enhancement, possibly representing pits associated with pottery manufacture.
