Stealing Away, Like Time Archaeology and the River Jordan, Sutton Poyntz

Wessex Water's decision to build a new water treatment works at Sutton Poyntz provided an opportunity, in 1993-4, for archaeologists from Wessex Arcaheology to find out how people had lived, worked and worshipped in the landscape around the River Jordan. This is the story of the archaeological investigations that preceded construction of the works, and of the river's influence on the people, the place, and the landscape.
