Magnetic survey results clipped at +- 3 standard deviations to emphasize extremely high amplitude large-scale anomalies. This anomaly is a strong candidate for a large, iron rich, in-situ buried thermo-remanent archaeological feature such as a blast furnace. The anomaly centered at 13N, 43E is a modern drainage culvert that runs underneath the access road.
