Abstract/Summary
Report on an archaeological evaluation at the rear of Top O’Town House in relation to proposed residential development. One trench was excavated which revealed flint gravel deposits. These may have been the remains of the Roman road from Dorchester to Ilchester or possibly a later road. A mortared chalk wall was also found which may have been the remains of a field boundary wall or a garden wall in the former grounds of the house.
