Full Description

An evaluation carried out by Kent Archaeological Projects in 2011 found two pits. One was oval in shape an contained Mid-Late Iron Age pottey in the upper fill. A later circular pit cuts the first pit and contained a charcoal-rich fill, and possibly has evidence of in-situ burning at the base of the pit. This later pit is undated but presumed to be of a smiliar date. (1)
