Title Weldon, Castle Hill, Swanscombe (Ebbsfleet), Kent Report On A Targeted Archaeological (PALAEOLITHIC) Test Pit Evaluation South Of Area B
Author/Originator
Date/Year 2008

Abstract/Summary

Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs Consulting, acting on behalf of Land Securities Ltd., to undertake an archaeological (Palaeolithic) test pit evaluation within the Weldon footprint of the Castle Hill village development located in the former Eastern Quarry, Swanscombe, Kent (hereafter, ‘the Site’), centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) 560930 173560. The works were initially to comprise a Palaeolithic test pit evaluation south of Area B, to be followed by both post-Palaeolithic trial trenching and additional targeted Palaeolithic test pits in Area A. However, due to problems accessing Area A, this part of the project was postponed until a later date.
