Abstract: Article describing finds from the Plough Inn, Sittingbourne. Initial structural surveys dated the oldest part of the building to the 17th century, far earlier than had been imagined. Further investigations undertaken in advance of demolition resulted in the recovery of a significant collection of shoes, items of clothing and accessories as well as other small finds such as clay pipes and children's marbles. There was some evidence to suggest that the Plough had been used as a Masonic lodge, potentially the earliest in Sittingbourne. Historical research has identified two candidate families that may have been responsible for deposition of the 17th century articles. The potential significance of the distribution of the finds within the building is discussed. LD
