Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was carried out at Frame Farm, Iden Green Road, Benenden, Kent to monitor groundworks associated with a new byre building, the barn and a new car parking area. Monitoring inside the barn identified the presence of sleeper walls which originally supported a wooden suspended threshing floor. The original 18th century threshing floor would have been supported on wooden joists, though evidence suggests these were replaced by brick sleeper walls (late 19th century). It then seems likely that the wooden floor was removed (late 20th century), the sleeper walls reduced in height and a concrete screed floor laid over the remains of the sleeper walls. The groundworks for the byre revealed the brick wall foundations from the demolished building, together with a number of in-situ wooden posts. With the exception of Post A, the location of the posts found does not correspond with the recorded positions of posts in the demolished building, although some of the posts found do closely correspond with partitions within the building, and may represent earlier locations of posts for these. However building survey noted an earlier building which may have been larger. It seems likely therefore that some of the posts found may relate to the earlier building. The monitoring of the car park area revealed only late post medieval features, including land drains (19th-20th century), and modern drain runs (20th century). Four post holes recorded (20th century) may relate to the small open fronted building shown on the 1956 OS Map.
