Dorset Middle Stour River Catchment Aerial Investigation and Mapping Project
Author(s): Fiona Fleming, Carolyn Royall
This report presents the results of a systematic survey of a range of archaeological sites visible as earthworks, cropmarks and structures on aerial photographs and lidar imagery within a 213 square kilometre area of East Dorset incorporating the middle section of the Stour river catchment, including its tributaries, the rivers Tarrant and Winterborne. The project has significantly enhanced existing baseline data through the mapping, interpretation and recording of 2,258 archaeological sites, of which 1,827 were previously unrecorded in county or national databases. The results will be available for use by local communities, researchers, policy makers and managers of the historic and natural environment.
