Happy New (Digging) Year!
We are all looking forward to the 2026 digging season here at Dorset Diggers. Our next trench will be over one of the house platforms that we believe to be constructed of stone and we also hope that other features will turn up. Last season our small 2m x 4m trench, as well as metal detecting, brought up metal and pottery by the tray load!
We are also looking forward to the reports on the age and fabric of our 2025 pottery samples, as well as the soil samples we bagged up, which will allow us to reconstruct the immediate environment of the DMV several hundred years ago.
Keep looking in to find out how much more archaeology we can uncover in 2026.
