Full Description
During an archaeological watching brief undertaken by Canterbury Archaeological Trust at The Grand Shaft Barracks in 2017 the demolition deposit from the demolition of the Officers Quarters Range B was uncovered. This primary demolition layer contained material very probably derived from the superstructure of the building itself but overlying deposits of soil, chalk, rubble, ash and cinders must have been brought in from elsewhere.
