Twelve Romano-British pits, found in 1899/1900 during the laying of foundations for Budden and Biggs Brewery at Strood. Location was some 150 feet north of the Roman road and the same distance east of the parish church. All were filled with rich dark earth, and yielded an abundant amount of Roman materials. Finds included pottery, coins, nails, two knives, two keys, a finger ring, a stud with ornamented head, fragments of glass vessels, part of a quern, some bone pins, portions of roof tiles and various animal remains.
