Abstract: |
Terrain Archaeology, in co-operation with the Hengistbury Head Visitor Centre, carried out a programme of archaeological observations and recording and an associated a metal detector survey at Hengistbury Head, Bournemouth, Dorset, during the excavation new service trenches for the installation of two new livestock watering troughs. Work was carried out adjacent to the Visitor Centre, the Iron Age double dyke defences and part of a Bronze Age barrow cemetery. No features or deposits of archaeological significance were identified during the works, although a small collection of struck flint included four cores (amongst which was a multi- platform example made on Portland Chert) and a rolled and stained flake of likely Lower- or Middle Palaeolithic date. |
