A geophysical survey is being undertaken during September 2024 to add to the knowledge gained from recent investigations within the walled town of Durobrivae and to its north and south.
The team from the Herts based Community Archaeology Geophysics Group (CAGG) has recruited volunteers from local archaeology groups, FRAG and MidNAG.
The survey is using both magnetometry and earth resistance techniques. They are targeting features previously visible in aerial photographs in fields to the west of the A1. These probably include Roman suburbs of Durobrivae – but there are also potential prehistoric features such as henges.
The results are being shared on a blog by CAGG.
