Abstract:

An excavation in 1999 on land just north of the line of Watling Street, at the southern edge of the parish of Northfleet, found evidence of medieval occupation and settlement. This took the form of field boundaries, paddocks and vestigial structural remains, dating to the eleventh and twelfth centuries. It is suggested that this was part of the settlement known as Wenifalle in the late twelfth century, which survived as a nearby farm -- Wingfield Bank -- until the twentieth century. Includes specialist reports on the historical background; the pottery; ceramic building material and fired clay; flint and worked stone; metalwork; animal bone; small mammal, bird and fish remains; marine shells; and charred plant remains.
