Abstract:		 This report outlines the results of an Archaeological Watching Brief undertaken during blanket bog restoration works at Flat Tor Pan as part of the Dartmoor Mires Project. The restoration works were carried out from 4 August to 31 October 2014 and again from 2 February until 20 March 2015. The Dartmoor Mires Project involves carrying out restoration work to areas of blanket peat within Dartmoor National Park. The restoration works comprised the mechanical removal of peat islands and the excavation of small borrow pits, which were used to block natural erosion gullies on the site. The author, Nicola Rohan and archaeologists Arlene Fadden and Alan Whitaker, from Bournemouth Archaeology, were on site for the duration of the restoration works observing the peat removal, UXO survey and machine access to and from the site. A Royal Navy 766 Squadron Sea Vixen crashed on the site on 31th May 1965 during a training exercise. The pilot and his observer ejected safely and the crash site is now the site of a pond, which is located at the northern end of the restoration area. Sea Vixen fuselage debris and a small quantity of World War 2 artillery fragments were recovered from the site during the course of restoration works and UXO survey. No other remains of archaeological significance were uncovered during the course of restoration works.
