Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out during the excavation of trial trenches dug in preparation for the construction of a new storm water detention tank and attendant works at Kingsmead Coach Park, Canterbury. Works included six trenches 1m in width up-to 34m in length and dug to a maximum depth of c.3m. The excavations revealed a considerable depth of overburden overlying River Terrace Gravels and alluvial clays possibly derived from a medieval flooding event. Few finds were recovered from the watching brief however CBM of medieval and possibly Roman date was recovered from samples of the riverine deposits and a large post-medieval milestone was encountered within overburden contexts. |
