During 1990 soil stripping of an area of about one hectare was undertaken in the northwest corner of Strawberry Field. This was undertaken under archaeological monitoring by Poole Museums Service. A group of three adjacent pits produced pottery and flint of early to mid Neolithic type. Two pits contained evidence for in situ burning and five were devoid of dating evidence.
