As part of the Northfleet Roman villa complex, a large aisled structure was constructed c. 60m west of the main villa, probably in the 3rd century. It was 14m wide and at least 28m long and comprised masonry walls and two lines of internal post holes. (1)

The walls of this structure were flint, measuring 0.60m wide and 0.40m remaining in height (3 courses). Mortar was used for one of the walls and the stone of the other two walls was not bonded but set within sand and gravel. The walls had unmortared flint footings 0.30m deep and between 0.60m and 1m wide. The constructino trenches were cut into older colluvial deposits. The north-east corner of the building had been robbed out. The south-eastern part of the building was not within the excavation area.

Location accurate to 1m based on available information.
