Abstract
Abstract Three seasons of fieldwork at the forced labour camp of Lager Wick, Grouville, Jersey (2014–2016) employed resistivity, ground penetrating radar (GPR) and magnetic susceptibility to investigate areas of the camp. Resistivity and magnetic susceptibility produced the most useful results, whilst the GPR survey only revealed a modern pipe. The resistivity survey was undertaken in the south-west corner of the former camp close to the entrance gate posts, whilst the magnetic susceptibility survey was undertaken over the remains of one of the barrack huts along the Gorey Road frontage which had been burnt to the ground in 1943. The resistivity survey produced some high resistance anomalies that appear to resemble a demolition layer or a surface on which the huts were constructed. Magnetic susceptibility results showed zones of burning which appear to relate to the remains of one of the burnt huts; excavation revealed a stone/brick surface.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Conflict Archaeology is an English-language journal devoted to the battlefield and military archaeology and other spheres of conflict archaeology, covering all periods with a worldwide scope. Additional spheres of interest will include the archaeology of industrial and popular protest; contested landscapes and monuments; nationalism and colonialism; class conflict; the origins of conflict; forensic applications in war-zones; and human rights cases. Themed issues will carry papers on current research; subject and period overviews; fieldwork and excavation reports-interim and final reports; artifact studies; scientific applications; technique evaluations; conference summaries; and book reviews.
