Abstract:
Archaeology South-East was commissioned by Arcadis to undertake an archaeological evaluation on land at Repton Park, Ashford, in advance of the redevelopment of the site. A total of 50 trenches were excavated across the site to reveal the underlying natural geology at a maximum height of 69.08m OD in the far northwest of the site (Trench 66), falling away to 58.44m OD to the east (Trench 7) and 51.52m OD to the south (Trench 38a). Archaeological features revealed include a number of ditches on a variety of alignments, interspersed with occasional pits, postholes and tree throws that are consistent with low-level agricultural landuse. Though dating is limited, it is considered that two superimposed co-axial field systems are represented among the various ditch alignments; a WNW-ESE/NNE-SSW aligned field system of possible Middle-Late Bronze Age date and a NW-SE/NE-SW alignment of probable medieval date. Some post-medieval fidns recovere from the topsoil horizon attest to continued farming on the site into the 19th century and the presence of some sequences of recent made ground are probably associated with the 20th century use of the site as a barracks.
