Brick footings and a brick cess tank were observed during an evaluation at 3-5 Queen Street, Gravesend by SWAT Archaeology in June 2011 on land prior to building work. The footings were on the western and southern edge of trench 2 and excavated to only 0.70m deep. No cut was observed for the footings within the trench.

The brick built cess tank was observed in trench 1. The cut measured 1.60m square and survived to a depth of 0.40m, and there were seven courses of yellow brick exposed.

It is likely that both structures are related to an earlier building on the site. The context covering both fills was loose with post medieval inclusions. (1)
