Description

An archaeological watching brief was carried out by AC Archaeology between January and March 1994 at Icen Way, Dorchester to observe site levelling and groundworks for a new housing development on the site of the former Heathcote House. Monitoring revealed a post-medieval well and a complex of ditches and features containing no datable artefacts but which may be prehistoric in date.
