Archaeology at Druce Farm, Puddletown, Dorset

Watch this exclusive footage of excavations by the East Dorset Antiquarian Society in the Summer of 2014 at Druce Farm, Puddletown.
The work revealed a well-preserved Roman villa, where three large ranges of buildings are set within a courtyard enclosure. High-class finds suggest wealthy owners living here from the 1st century AD and who continued to inhabit the site for several centuries after the Romans left Britain #FestivalofArchaeology #Archaeology #History #Heritage #Dorset.
