Contour map of the resistivity data from Grid 3. Two of the anomalous areas identified in Grid 3 reflect the use of the parade ground as a 20th century park. They include a diagonal walkway and the compacted or disturbed remains of Marmaton Street. A third anomaly appears to represent the 1840s/1850s military walk from the dragoon barracks (HS5) to the well in the parade ground.
