Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at the site of a Roman villa (Scheduled Ancient Monument No. KE 299), which was affected by the route of the Channel Tunnel Rail Link. Remains associated with the villa were recorded, including the footings of an aisled building, ditches, pits, cobbled areas and pottery. Some pottery sherds may have pre-dated the Roman conquest. Further ditches were revealed which may have been part of the moat of medieval Corbier Hall, a Scheduled Ancient Monument (KE 309) which lay to the south-east. A possible 19th century icehouse was also recorded. [Au(abr)] |
