A 1:2500 scale, level 3 survey was carried out by the RCHME Air Photography Unit in the vicinity a multi-phased hill top enclosure on Raddon Hills, SS8855 0313. The survey was undertaken as part of the Industry and Enclosure in the Neolithic Project which was set up by the Cambridge field office of RCHME. The main objective of the survey was to produce an accurate plan of all archaeological features on the crest of the ridge. The survey was carried out by computer aided rectification using the AERIAL software published by the University of Bradford. Field control was obtained from current edition OS 1:2500 plans (SS 8802 and SS 8803). Due to the steep topography of the area, the metrical accuracy was less than that usually accepted for this scale of survey. Features in the south-western quarter of the enclosure are located within 5m of thier true ground position, however, the accuracy of the rest of the plot may be anything up to +/- 15m.
An accompanying report detailing photographs used, site location and history and a full description of the features plotted was produced as well as an inked interim plan. Collection UID 1073465.
