Monument record TR 36 SE 805 - Medieval field system and associated features, Chalk Hill, Ramsgate

Summary

During investigations associated with the construction of the Ramsgate Harbour Approach, road in 1997/1998, evidence for medieval activity was uncovered. A network of small linear gullies was revealed defining a medieval field system, (with possible origins in the Anglo Saxon period). a hollow way was also seen crossing the site, this aligned with the field system and is likely associated with it. A quarry pit of a possible medieval date was also uncovered (location accurate to the nearest 1m based on available information)
