Abstract/Summary
‘An archaeological watching brief was carried out by Terrain Archaeology during topsoil stripping for an extension to a quarry in the southeast part of Blacklands Field to the south of Acton near Langton Matravers, Purbeck, Dorset. Two stone-filled field drains were revealed, but no other features or deposits of archaeological interest were found. The results of this watching brief suggest that the Iron Age and Roman activity discovered in the late 1940s is confined to the western part of the field.‘
