Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by the Duchy of Cornwall - Dorchester ('the Client') to undertake an archaeological evaluation of land located at Parkway Farm Business Park, Middle Farm Way, Poundbury, Dorchester, Dorset DT1 3AR, centred on NGR 367330, 89972. A planning application (WD/D/19/000681) was approved by West Dorset District Council. The proposed development comprises an outline planning permission to erect 22 commercial units for B1, B2 and B8 use with associated access and parking. The evaluation comprised the excavation, investigation and recording of five trial trenches, equating to a 3% sample of the proposed development area. The evaluation was undertaken to inform the nature and scope of any archaeological mitigation works that may be required in advance of construction associated with the development. The evaluation recorded a colluvial deposit which overlay a palaeochannel mapped by the BGS. Additionally, within the evaluated area four small modern features and a single tree-throw hole were identified. No archaeological features pre-dating the modern period were identified or present. The minimal site records have been scanned as a security copy and are held by Wessex Archaeology.
