Abstract: |
This report concerns an Archaeological Assessment of the Groombridge to Hourne Farm Tank Mains Reinforcement Scheme undertaken by Border Archaeology Ltd (BAL) for South East Water. The archaeological potential of the route has been assessed in overall terms as Moderate to High, primarily reflecting the fact that significant evidence of Roman and medieval industrial activity has been identified in the vicinity of the pipeline route. Two specific sections of the route have been identified as having especial potential for multi-period archaeological remains associated with ironworking activity, namely 1/a section of the route extending for about 1.1km NE from Hourne Farm pumping station through woodland and pasture fields to Stonehouse Farm (from NGR TQ 52265 31847 to TQ 52613 32843 and 2/another section extending NE from Stonehouse Farm towards Renby Farm (from TQ 52841 33204 to NGR TQ 53278 33921). |
