Title Archaeological Assessment of St John Ambulance Site, North Square, Dorchester, Dorset
Author/Originator
Date/Year 2000

Abstract/Summary

Desk-based assessment on the site of the former St John Ambulance Hall, North Square. The assessment indicates the site lies immediately to the south of the possible line of the northern defences of the Roman town. Given the substantial evidence for Roman buildings in the vicinity it is likely that similar buildings could exist on the site. During the medieval period the site is in the grounds of the Friary. The existence of houses along the Friary Lane frontage has been established.
