Monument record TR 15 NW 613 - Medieval pits and probable boundary ditch, Canterbury

Summary

Evaluation prior to residential development. Work uncovered medieval pits and boundary ditch and Roman street metalling (TR 15 NW 612). Two pits were found used possibly as rubbish or cess pits which contained flint, peg tile and oyster shells. The ditch contained only Romano-British artifacts, but these are probably residual. The feature is roughly parallel to Wincheap and almost certainly delineates the rear boundary for medvieval properties the road.
