Abstract: |
Archaeology South East were commissioned to undertake an evaluation at ground to the rear off Knockhall Primary School, off Abbey Road, Greenhithe, Kent. The site is centred on TQ 5920 7470. The work was to take place prior to the building of temporary structures to provide a children's centre. The archaeological potential of the site, particularly with a view to the recovery of early prehistoric material, was such that specialist work was undertaken to recover and investigate gravels deposits expected on site. A thirty metre evaluation trench and two 1.8 metre wide by 4 metre long test pits within each end of the were excavated. Finds were recovered from a redeposited gravel context. These consisted of worked and unworked flint flakes dating from Mesolithic to Bronze Age. No further artefacts or features were observed. |
