Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs Heritage (Part of RPS) ('the client'), to carry out an archaeological evaluation through a program of trial trenching of a 1.73 ha parcel of land located in Lowfield Street, Dartford, Kent. The evaluation area is centred on NGR 554186 173964. The evaluation confirmed the results of the previous archaeological evaluation and desk-based assessment with wide truncation recorded across the site as a result of the construction and demolition of former buildings. This included made ground deposits that ran from 0.1 to 2.4m+ below ground levels. Several of the former concrete and brick walls recorded during the investigation were found to correlate with buildings recorded on the 1938 and 1961 Ordnance Survey maps. The evaluation confirmed the results of the previous archaeological evaluation and desk-based assessment with wide truncation recorded across the site as a result of the construction and demolition of former buildings. This included made ground deposits from 0.1m to 2.4m+ below ground levels. Several of the former concrete and brick walls recorded during the investigation were found to correlate with buildings recorded on the 1938 and 1961 Ordnance Survey maps. Based on the results of this evaluation, the archaeological potential of the site is considered to be minimal as a result of the truncation that has been caused through the construction and demolition of former buildings. Minimal site records have been scanned as a security copy and are held with Wessex Archaeology as agreed with Dartford Museum
