Description
In June 2008, Terrain Archaeology carried out a second stage of archaeological evaluation of land to the rear of 19 Blandford Road, Hamworthy, Poole (NGR SZ00379017). This phase of evaluation was specifically targeted in those areas formerly inaccessible below the previous industrial buildings on the site, which lie within the footprint of the proposed new development. seven machine-dug evaluation trenches were excavated and archaeological features were revealed in every trench. Primarily the archaeology comprised a series of small ditches, very similar to the Late Iron Age and Roman ditch systems found previously on this site and the adjacent site of Shapwick Road, together with asmaller number of possible pits and postholes. A small number of more recent features were also found.
