The medieval features on Thanet Earth dated to between the mid-eleventh century to the early part of the fourteenth (possibly extending to AD 1350). The activity is primarily agricultural in nature with significant elements of domestic occupation. A site wide system of enclosures appears to be intimately related to various trackways across the site. The activity around these enclosures has been grouped into a number of Medieval ‘sites’.

Several Medieval structures and enclosures were linked with Trackway 29 to the east. The northernmost was an isolated medieval building (Site 10) just north of the centre of the overall site on Plateau 3. This was cut into the north-south aligned parish boundary or trackway ditch. It was square cut with slightly rounded corners, 3.1m long and 2.95m wide and c. 0.5m deep aligned east-west, with its western edge aligned closely with the western edge of the underlying boundary ditch (. The sides were vertical with a single posthole cutting into the centre of the flat base, although there were some other amorphous depressions that might have been post-settings. A substantial oven within a cut approximately 1.4m in diameter, 0.1m deep with near vertical sides and a flat base in the north-west corner of the building, extended slightly beyond the limit of the main cut. The building was a small example of a Type 1 structure and, following abandonment, was filled by mixed deposits of clay silts but with few finds apart from a few sherds of pottery dated to AD 1250–1325 and some animal bone. Much of the fill could have occurred naturally or over a long period, so that the date of the structure is uncertain, but it was most likely fairly late. Only two other medieval features were found in the vicinity, at some distance and probably unrelated. One was a small pit containing pottery dated to AD 1100–1200. The other was a very short segment of east-west aligned ditch mostly removed by ploughing, possibly fragmentary remains of an associated enclosure, but this was not identified anywhere else. The feature had been disturbed and truncated by several later features including a second world war pit. (1) (information summarised from source)
