| Title | Digital Archive from a Watching Brief and Building Recording at the Corn Exchange, North Square, Dorchester, Dorset, 2021-22 |
| Description | This collection comprises reports, images, and plans from a watching brief conducted by Terrain Archaeology during piling for the new Corn Exchange extension and an intermittent informal watching brief during subsequent works during 2021-22. The piling observations revealed that the natural chalk was below a layer of probable post-medieval garden soil, buried by terrace deposits for the nineteenth century Market House. A well of possible medieval date was adapted by the addition of a chute in the post-medieval period, perhaps to adapt it as a drain or soakaway within the Market House. A series of post-medieval cellars was also recorded. |
