| Abstract: |
account of the development of the quay area of Poole, from a probable timber quay suggested by documentary sources in the sixteenth century via its replacement by a stone quay, probably later that century, and the construction of a new quay in 1618. Remains of another quay area have been excavated to the south and at the Poole Foundry site a jetty of oak piles and chalk blocks was recorded. Stacks of oak timbers representing a boatyard's store, c. 1500, were found, some of them having been salvaged from boats. Documentary evidence points to trade to France and the Channel Islands |
