An evaluation was commissioned by ?Sloggetts Builders Limited in advance of the proposed redevelopment of a large plot of land opposite Canterbury East railway station. The evaluation was carried out in April, 1987 and the site code was ES87.
The evaluation consisted of four trenches, each measuring 1.5m by 5m. Evidence was found for post-Medieval clay quarrying and terracing during the construction of dwellings in the 19th century.
