Description

Wessex Archaeology carried out a watching brief during cable replacement work at Barrow Hill, Corfe Mullen, Dorset. The groundworks comprised the machine-excavation of pole-holes and stay-holes, one set of which were adjacent to the southernmost of two Bronze Age round barrows. The only archaeological deposits observed were in stay-hole 1b, which cut through the ditch around the barrow. No artefacts were recovered.
