Full Description
Two ditches of Romano British date were uncovered in trench 9 during an archaeological evaluation carried out on land to the north of Cottingotn Road, Cliffsend. The ditch was north east-south west orientated and was concave in profile and measured 0.4m wide. It was cut by a north west-south east
orientated ditch that measured 1.3m in width and also had a concave profile. These features were not fully excavated due to health and safety limitations but were confidently assigned a Romano-British date. Further roman activity at this site is represented by a large quarry, while Roman pits were also disscovered on the southern side of the road. (information summarised from source) (1)
