Abstract:
Describes the results of excavations undertaken by Wessex Archaeology in advance of development at a site near Rochester, in relation to findings from a site excavated immediately to the north in the 1990s. The earliest evidence of human activity comprised a small quantity of worked flint, probably of the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age, and small numbers of Early and Middle Bronze Age features. A broad metalled trackway flanked by ditches was likely to date to the Late Iron Age or Romano-British period. Coins suggest that Romano-British activity continued well into the second half of the 4th century AD. Evidence of Saxon settlement comprised dispersed sunken-featured buildings of the late 6th and 7th centuries and higher-status settlement in the mid- to late Saxon period. A systematic metal detector survey recovered numerous finds including 84 items of post-medieval lead shot, perhaps relating to field exercises undertaken by the garrison of nearby Upnor Castle. LD
