Abstract:
As the result of an archaeological condition on the planning permission for the construction of two houses on the site of the former Health Centre, at the junction of The Tene and Pinnocks Lane, the Heritage Network was commissioned by the owner to undertake an archaeological excavation. Removal of the overburden revealed a concentration of archaeolgical features. Two adjoining areas, A and B, were investigated. Area A covered the northern end of the site and measured approximately 200m2. Area B covered the southern end and measured approximately 50m2. The archaeological evidence suggests that the present site, which lay on the southern edge of the early Romano-British settlement, went through several phases of use. The earliest features recorded, including pits, postholes, and ditches indicate early Roman occupation. This was apparently replaced by a small chalk quarry and a possible cellared building, with associated postholes. Fifteen graves, some in clear groupings, were also present, part of a previously documented extensive late Roman inhumation cemetery. A number of post-Roman features were also recorded, including ditch complexes and pits.
