Poundbury
Date Added: 20th Feb 2011
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Dorset)
Visited: Yes on 13th Sep 2010
Poundbury submitted by JimChampion on 5th Jun 2005. Looking south across the Frome valley at the ramparts of Poundbury hillfort. You can see its rectangular perimeter in this composite picture - no wonder the Romans liked the site. Parts of modern Dorchester can be seen poking out e.g. the keep-like military museum is on the left. (The line in the sky is a power cable that I couldn't get away from).

Site Type: Timber Circle
Country: England (Dorset)
Visited: Yes on 10th Sep 2010
Dorchester, Tudor Arcade submitted by TimPrevett on 3rd Nov 2003. When in Dorchester, I just had to check out the report in Bill Putnam's book "Dorset: The Prehistoric Age" that there were red markings in Waitrose Car Park, Dorchester, denoting sites of larger timber posts, which formed part
of a timber circle. Quote "parts of a large timber circle have been
discovered surrounding a projected area of around 380 metres in diameter.
