Abstract:
Archaeological and geological field investigations of Section C of the Dartford Fastrack Scheme have confirmed certain aspects of the local geology and have brought to light periglacial structures not previously recorded. The investigations confirmed the local occurrence of the Dartford Heath Gravel (Orsett Heath Gravel, Boyn Hill Gravel) and enabled its relationship to the gravels on Dartford Heath and at Swanscombe to be examined. Periglacial load structures of more complexity than the local involutions have been described and valley bulging is reported for the first time. No unequivocal Palaeolithic artefacts were found, despite sieving of very large quantities of gravel. This suggests that there was no human presence in the area at the time of this deposit's formation, which perhaps implies it was not laid down at the same time as any part of the Boyn Hill Gravel sequence at Swanscombe, which is rich throughout in Palaeolithic remains.
