Abstract: |
Terrain Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation of two houses, Normandy and Kohima, on School Lane, Dorchester. Three trenches were excavated, revealing part of the outer ditch of the Roman town defences in Trench 1 and the remains of the dumped chalk bank of the Counterscarp Bank of the town defences in Trenches 2 and 3. The bank survived 0.9 m high. The robbed out remains of the nineteenth century Christ Church were also found including part of the nave wall, a buttress and a drain. The church was demolished in 1933. |
