Abstract:
A number of Early Neolithic pits containing substantial assemblages of pottery and worked flint were recorded at Middle Farm, Dorchester. These represent important additions to our knowledge of non-monumental activity in this area. Further pits, roundhouses and field boundary ditches extend the known pattern of settlement and field systems in the immediate vicinity of the South Winterbourne valley during the Bronze Age with both Early--Middle and Late Bronze Age components present. Additional finds include a Palaeolithic hand-axe, Late Mesolithic flintwork and Late Iron Age/early Romano-British marl pits. Specialist reports include
