Newton Kyme Henge and Roman Fort by Andy B on Tuesday, 04 February 2020
(User Info | Send a Message)
Yorkshire Archaeological Aerial Mapping write: Everyone knows there is a Roman Fort on the river heading into Newton Kyme. YAA Mapping used the site to test their bespoke ground mapping software in the winter of 2016.

This is the result of the first survey: for the first time not only is the fort(let?) revealed in all its glory but the extension or replacement fort to the south is clearly visible.

Flight time? 12 minutes. How long would it take your group to detail survey such a feature? For fast, detailed and interactive 3D ground mapping services, free to community groups, contact YAA mapping now!

More information at Yorkshire Archaeological Aerial Mapping where they have an HD Aerial Shot, ​Elevation projection and KML files.
