Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by St Michaels and All Saints Church Parochial Parish Council (PCC), to undertake an archaeological watching brief during intrusive groundworks undertaken within the churchyard, centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) SU 15284 47507. The watching brief was required during groundworks associated with the construction of a new water closet at the rear of the church and comprised the installation of a mains water connection and a waste water pipe. The route of the pipes ran around the church clock tower to the main entrance of the church and then followed the line of the existing footpath and was positioned within an existing cable trench running to the church gate. The watching brief was maintained during all intrusive groundworks, which comprised a machine cut trench measuring 300mm in width, approximately 64m in length and between 1m and 2m in depth. As a result of the pipe route and the depth of the trench, a number of graves were disturbed. Following discussions with the Dorset County Archaeologist (DAC Archaeological Advisor), these were subject to rapid archaeological recording and lifted for later reburial. No human remains were removed from the site. The date of the burials is uncertain; some could predate the construction of the clock tower and the current footpath, and as such are likely to be some of the earliest burials in the cemetery. Others are more recent, and are considered to be late 18th or early 19th century in date. The watching brief took place from 19th September to 30th September 2011.
