Monument record MDO6211 - Post-medieval occupation adjacent to Ringwood Road, Verwood
Please read our guidance about the use of Dorset Historic Environment Record data.
Summary
Four evaluation trenches within the proposed development site in 1995 investigated the positions of former buildings shown on the Verwood Parist tithe map of 1847 and the 1901 Ordnance Survey map, as well as sampling apparently blank areas. Investigation revealed a moderate quantity of later nineteenth century East Dorset (Verwood) pottery, and some archaeological features were noted, although their character was uncertain. With the exception of a single post hole which may have related to former buildings on the site, no evidence for kilns or other pottery- related infrastructure was found. It was clear that there had been extensive disturbance cross much of the site.
