Abstract:
The external square ditch and central burial pit of the barrow were easily identified within a surrounding of natural material. There appeared to be an archaeological feature within the south-western section of the ditch. The gradiometer corroborated the location of the tyres/wheels. between these features, the pit seemed to have been deepened, and perhaps pertained to the axle or chassis of the chariot. There seemed to be some faint trend to the north of the wheels which were assumed to be related to the body/chassis of the chariot, although having probably been constructed of wood, the response was not particularly clear.
