Abstract: |
Terrain Archaeology carried out archaeological observations and recording during footpath improvement works at Gallows Hill, Dorchester, close to the south east corner of the Roman town defences. Natural chalk was revealed over the whole area of groundworks. No trace of the defences was found, but the site lay on the outer edge of the projected course of the bank. All traces of the bank material may have been removed from this area as part of the eighteenth century landscaping works to form the town walks. |
