Full Description
<1> Farwell, C A, 1990, A report on the watching-brief carried out during construction of the Ryall Duplication Main, West Dorset (Unpublished document). SDO183.
‘One feature only was noted, an undated ditch running from west to east (at SY 41409675). The ditch was sealed by topsoil; it had a slightly rounded, V-shaped profile and was approximately three metres wide at the top and at least one metre deep (the base was not reached). The ditch was filled with apparently homogeneous greyish brown clay. No finds were recovered from it.’
