Findspot record TR 36 NW 420 - Bronze Age Finds, Margate
Summary
Ahead of proposed development of the site a limited evaluation and fieldwalking/metal-detectoring survey took place in 1986. The evaluation produced no archaeological remains, however the survey recovered a number of metal finds including several pieces of bronze ingot and part of the blade of a socketed late Bronze Age axe. Further work in 1994 found part of a sword blade.
