Monument record TQ 76 SW 97 - Iron Age Settlement, Nr Little Kit's Coty, Aylesford
Summary
Trial trenching in 1989 found no clear evidence of a quarry ditch and mound for for the Neolithic tomb (TQ 76 SW1) although one ditch (No.4) could be a candidate. However, 10 ditches (some parallel) and 5 pits were found with mid to late Iron Age pottery in the fill with other domestic rubbish. Low density of finds and features suggests the periphery of an Iron Age settlement. Varied alignments of features suggest more than one phase observed.
