Abstract/Summary

An earthwork survey and archaeological monitoring was carried out by AC archaeology in August 2002 prior to and during works associated with a flood alleviation scheme at Maiden Newton, Dorset (NGR SY596976). The field affected by the scheme is located at the confluence of the River Hooke and River Frome and contains evidence for an undated water-management system, as well as structures associated with World War 2 defences. These latter features lay outside the area of groundworks.
