(SY 9907891902). During 1978/79 Mr. K. Jarvis of Poole Museums excavated a machine trench 34 m long at Vineyards Copse across the Roman road from Hamworth to Lake. This revealed a turf stack 6 m wide and 0.5 m high which was widened to 12 m and capped with gravel. There was no dating evidence. The results need not suggest more than one period of road construction. Full report in PDNHAS forthcoming. Poole Museums Site Archive PM 28.
