Full Description
Small ring ditch located at TR 3666 6856, pit at TR 3673 6862 and a possible barrow at TR 3674 6868. Visible on RCHME AP. (1)
Thanet Reach Business Park Development: Archaeological Implications. Desk based assessment [2]. Possibly Thanet Sites and Monument nos 405, 414.
The cropmark remains of a small ring ditch with a diameter of 9.5m dentified from aerial photographs: NMR 4176/32 01-AUG-1988 and mapped as part of the Historic England Thanet Landscape Mapping Project 2024. This may be the site of a Bronze Age or perhaps an early medieval burial mound. The pit at c.TR 3673 6862 (noted in 1 above) is probably a post medieval extractive pit. All three of these features were also mapped as part of the earlier RCHME Kent NMP project undertaken in the late 1980s. (3)
