Full Description

In 2002 the Trust for Thanet Archaeology carried out an evaluation and a watching brief at Bradgate Caravan Park. No archaeological features were observed but a colluvial deposit, thought to contain material redeposited from nearby sites, was found. Worked flints were found within this deposit and from the surface of the site. The material included a number of more finely made pieces which may be of Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age date, including a possible knife or sickle-like blade. (1)
