Description
A watching brief was carried out by Terrain Archaeology in March and April 2002, during the construction of a new footway/cycleway across the watermeadows in the floodplain of the River Frome, immediately to the north of Dorchester.
No significant archaeological finds or features were encountered during the groundworks. All features recorded were of post-medieval date and associated with the water meadows or maintenance of the river bank.
