Monument record TQ 76 NW 322 - Iron Age activity, Cuxton

Summary

Iron Age features were excavated during work prior to the construction of the Channel Tunnel Rail Link. A circular posthole structure, possibly a round house and an associated posthole enclosure with monumental entrance were recorded. A further probable fenceline and a number of possible huts may well be the settlement from which the pottery derives. Residual sherds of late Iron Age to late Roman pottery were thought to derive from a field system at the site.
