| Abstract: |
A field evaluation was undertaken in an area where Neolithic to medieval artefacts were recorded during a watching brief on the construction of the M20 in 1979. The evaluation formed part of the wider programme of investigations along the route of the Channel Tunnel Rail Link. Two phases of Roman activity on the site were recognised, the first was the excavation of ditches and pits, probably forming enclosures/boundaries, in the first century AD. Pottery from a linear hollow was slightly later and was probably contemporary with a late 2nd century human cremation excavated. [Au(adp)] |
