Monument record TR 36 NW 1363 - Roman pits and ditches, possible enclosures land off Tothill Street, Minster

Summary

Several pits and ditches were discovered during evaluation trenching on land off Tothill Street in Minster, Thanet. A group of these were discovered in a trench (trench 10) that was targeting a set of geophysical anomalies which had been previously interpreted as possible enclosures. The all but one of the excavated features correlated with the survey anomalies. Further pits and ditches were also seen to the south in trench 12, these were not seen during the geophysical survey of the site but are likely of a similar date.
