Abstract:
Between November 2021 and February 2022, Canterbury Archaeological Trust (CAT) undertook monitoring of development at Whitstable and Seasalter Endowed C of E School, High Street, Whitstable, Kent CT5 1AY (NGR 610778 166468). The works were commissioned by KIER Construction on behalf of Kent County Council as part of preparations for the construction of a new single storey extension and the erection of a new, free standing canteen and kitchen building and associated drainage. The watching brief was maintained throughout a programme of ground excavation. It was carried out in accordance with the requirements set out within a Written Scheme of Investigation (WSI) approved by the KCC’s Heritage Conservation Group (HCG). The geological horizon comprised London clay formation at a depth of between 0.5m and 0.8m beneath the original ground surface, approximately 3.5m OD. No alluvium was present and the variation in depth of the upper geological surface was likely a result of modern truncations to the original ground level. A buried ground surface contained material related to building works within the area and likely dated to the late eighteenth to nineteenth century. The PDA lies at the rear of gardens for properties that fronted onto Whitstable High Street and at least five refuse pits associated with occupation of these properties were identified across the site containing common CBM, oyster shell, coal and rare glazed ceramic. The pits varied in size but contained similar material and likely dated to the nineteenth century. A later service line was identified associated with the building of the school in the late nineteenth century.
