SDO10348 - Archaeological evaluation of the former Foster’s School, Hound Street, Sherborne, Dorset

An archaeological evaluation was carried out to determine the nature and survival of potential archaeological deposits at Fosters School, Hound Street, Sherborne. A number of features of Medieval date were recorded; this included evidence for structures on the street frontage and at the rear of the site, and several pits and a possible quarry. Medieval pottery recovered from these contexts is not sufficiently diagnostic to define the activity on site more closely within the range of late twelfth to fourteen century.
