Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation at Colliton Street Youth Centre in advance of the proposed redevelopment of the site discovered one residual piece of prehistoric, worked flint; Roman post holes with finds of 1st - 4th century date, and two large, undated ditches. It was thought that the ditches were part of the defensive ditch system of the medieval Castle of Dorchester, being on the same alignment and of similar dimensions to sections of the defensive system excavated in the past.
