Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs on behalf of their client CG Fry to undertake a detailed gradiometer survey of land south of Dorchester, Dorset (centred on NGR SY 68161, 89221). The aim of the work was to establish the presence, or otherwise, and nature of detectable archaeological features on the site as part of a programme of archaeological works ahead of proposed development at the Site. The site is located approximately 1.33km southwest of the centre of Dorchester and 9.7km north of Weymouth. The site comprises one agricultural field, a playing field and a grassed area adjacent to housing located to the north of the A35 and just south of Dorchester town. Detailed gradiometer survey was undertaken over all accessible parts of the site, a total of 5.6ha, and has demonstrated the presence of only a few small anomalies of possible archaeological significance. The majority of detected features relate to agricultural activity with at least one former field boundary and numerous ploughing trends detected. The survey was undertaken between 16th and 20th October 2014.
