Abstract: |
Resistivity and magnetometer surveys were carried out at Hinton St Mary, Dorset, to provide detailed information about the immediate setting of an important 4th-century Roman mosaic unearthed in 1963. Previous excavation at the site had only provided a partial indication of the true pattern of the Roman remains. Further information was now required in order to assist site management. The survey successfully revealed evidence for a substantial complex of buried building remains and ditched features - mainly in the scheduled area (SAM Dorset 711) but also extending outside it. The character of the Roman remains can now be more fully appreciated and this will enable improved management and interpretation of the site in the future. |
