Abstract:
A watching and recording brief was carried out on land at 23 Oaten Hill, Canterbury, on behalf of Cardy Construction, following the exposure of human remains during groundworks associated with the erection of a single-storey residential property (CA/10/01937/FUL). The work was conducted by the Canterbury Archaeological Trust between 23-28 June 2011, under a Licence for the Removal of Human Remains granted by the Ministry of Justice on 23 June 2011 (licence no. 11-0083). The development area is located within the grounds of the former nunnery of St Sepulchre's (established c AD 1100). Two short segments of wall, probably representing different phases of the southern boundary wall of the former nunnery, were located in the south-east corner of the development area fronting Old Dover Road. In the north-east corner of the development area, within the grounds of the former nunnery, a soil horizon truncated by some 23 inhumation burials, was identified. The burials were aligned approximately east-north-east by west-south-west, and included males and females, as well as children and adults. Seven of the burials had potential timber coffins, represented by iron coffin nails. A small assemblage of pottery recovered from the soil horizon and backfill of the graves indicate a medieval date (c AD 1350-1550), and the burials are likely to form part of a larger cemetery known to have been attached to a parochial church within the nunnery. Comparable burials previously identified at no. 19 Oaten Hill and no. 14 Cossington Road likely represent parts of this same cemetery.
