Abstract: |
The evaluation was carried out in advance of a proposed residential development. The site lay in the historic core of Tolpuddle, the village church dated to the 12th century. The putative line of a Roman road between Dorchester and the Badbury Rings crossed the rear of the site. Two archaeological features were identified during the evaluation in a trench to the rear north end of the site. They comprised a probable Iron Age ditch and a post-medieval pit. The ditch was likely to have related to early field systems in the vicinity. Finds included one Iron Age pottery sherd, seven post-medieval pottery sherds and two flint flakes. [Au(adp)] |
