Monument record TQ 67 SE 301 - The earthwork remains of a probable post medieval-20th century stock watering pond (or Roman saltern) within Shornemead Marshes
Summary
The earthwork remains of a probable post medieval-20th century stock watering pond within Shornemead Marshes. The pond appears as an elongated water-filled pond with up-cast material around the sides of the depression. This is a form of pond seen at several locations in the marshes of the Hoo Peninsula. This site was mapped from aerial photographs as part of the English Heritage: Hoo Peninsula Landscape Project. These sites have, however, often been interpreted as Roman salterns
