‘Between November and December 2016, archaeological monitoring was undertaken by AC archaeology Ltd. on the former Hallmark Cars site, St John’s Hill, Wareham, Dorset, centred on NGR SY 92418728. The works comprised the monitoring of the groundworks associated with the construction of five new dwellings on the site. During the course of the works, features of a postmedieval date were identified; these comprised a probable pathway or garden feature, and the base of a dovecote. In addition to this, the monitoring recorded the presence of a deep former garden soil, which covered most of the northern portion of the site.’
