Summary
In April 2016 Archaeology South-East carried out a programme of historic building recording of the buildings and tramway tunnels adjacent to Craylands Lane and London Road, Little Swanscombe, Kent, prior to the proposed redevelopment of the site. The site was established as a quarry in the early 20th century, forming part of the Swanscombe Works, this was closed in 1990 but the remaining built heritage includes the eastern railway tunnel.
