Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was situated within what originally comprised the southern and eastern sections of the Invicta Sports Ground, Burnham Road, Dartford. Approximately 200mm of topsoil was stripped from the entire area. Foundation trenches for 6 residential properties were then machine excavated to a maximum depth of 1.4m below ground level. The watching brief revealed a pit, probably post-medieval in date, two post-medieval ditches, interpreted as possible boundary ditches and four undated cut features, also interpreted as possible boundary ditches. These features truncated either natural gravel or a deposit of colluvium, which was found to be very thin or completely absent upslope (in the southwest of the site), becoming thicker downslope (towards the northeast of the site). A row of earlier undated postholes, sealed by the colluvial layer, was also observed along with two possible paleochannels. The underlying geology was found to be natural terrace gravel.
