No: Golden Cap: Archaeologists unearth Napoleonic watchtower
ARCHAEOLOGISTS have unearthed a watchtower from the Napoleonic era at the start of a dig into threatened Bronze Age burial mounds on the Jurassic Coast.
The National Trust (NT) team is digging into 4,000 year old earthworks at Golden Cap to record their history before they slip into sea.
So far they have unearthed the 18th Century wathchtower built to provide early warning against a French invasion and watch Channel shipping but will be digging deeper into the mounds.
Ah, this is actually an update.
