Full Description

Three aligned ditches of Post Medieval date were visible as cropmarks in 35365/011 24-JUN-2024 and Next Perspectives APGB Imagery 21-APR-2007. They are thought to be of a date later than the nearby later prehistoric trackway (MKE91577) because of their much thinner, well-defined form and because one possibly cuts a medieval/post-mediveal extractive pit (MKE124878). They were mapped as part of the Historic England Isle of Thanet project in 2024. (1-2)
