Abstract: |
Archaeological observations and recording were carried out by Terrain Archaeology during the construction of a new extension to the rear of the Citizen's Advice Bureau, 1 Acland Road, Dorchester (SY69359064, in April 2004). The size of the footings trench was too small to give a clear picture of the archaeology, but parts of five pits were exposed, of which only two were bottomed. Part of one large Roman pit containing a large quantity of roof tile and some 2nd century pottery was found in the northern end of the trench. A single pit containing early medieval pottery was also found. This pit had been largely destroyed by a large stone-lined pit probably dating to the 18th century. The remaining two pits were probably 19th or 20th century in date. |
