Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Wyatt Homes to carry out an archaeological evaluation comprising of the investigation and recording of sixteen archaeological trial trenches on part of the proposed development site at Cuthbury in Wimborne Minster and is centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) 400400, 099950. This evaluation was undertaken in order to inform the nature and scope of any archaeological mitigation works which may be required in advance of construction associated with the proposed development. The evaluation was successful in identifying areas in which archaeological remains are present. Nine of the sixteen trenches contained archaeological remains. A number of features were recorded, most of these features were undated but appear prehistoric in character. The excavated features include ditches, shallow pits, and postholes. A possible in situ cremation urn was uncovered and recorded but not excavated, in accordance with the terms of the Ministry of Justice licence. Other similar features were recorded on the surface and left in situ. The pottery and worked flint recovered in the evaluation is indicative of a Late Bronze Age to Early Iron Age date. The evaluation highlighted two areas where further mitigation works may be required.
