Abstract:
The excavation was multi-phase with features dating from the Prehistoric through to the post-medieval period. Residual Mesolithic/Early Neolithic flints were found in later faetures. A few features tentatively dated to the Neolithic and Late Bronze Age-Middle Iron Age were revealed to the north of the site together with an assemblage of residual flints dating to the Late Bronze Age/Iron Age. Features from the Late Iron Age consisted of field ditches indicating an agrarian landscape. The Roman period provided a north-south aligned road, linking Watling Street with the River Medway. Also recorded were 2nd and 3rd century barns, a 3rd century tomb with lead coffin and large enclosures all of which are indicative of a villa site. A medieval moat was recorded surrounding the site of Grench Manor which lay at the centre of the site, but outside the area of excavation, and orchards to the west, post-medieval rubbish pits and field systems were also uncovered.
