‘The Iron Age and Romano-British site at Blashenwell, Corfe Castle.
Mr. P. A. Brown reports an Iron Age sling-stone of baked clay from the site near the tufa pit at Blashenwel, where a cist burial probably of the Bronze Age was excavated recently (Proceedings, Vol. 87 (1965), pp. 97-8). Large stone slabs thought to be the floor of a building, were exposed about 20 yds. S.W. of the cist, at about SY 95168045.’
