Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief took place on the site of 25 Frindsbury Road, Strood, near Rochester, Kent ME2 4TA between 28th March and 9th May 2008. The site is located to the north of Frindsbury Road, at the junction with Goddington Road at NGR TQ 73817 69651.The watching brief was carried out as part of the planning process prior to the redevelopment of the site for residential units. The site lies within an area of known archaeological importance and had the potential to contain archaeological deposits dating from the Roman and later periods. It was also possible that previously unrecorded finds and features relating to the historic ribbon development alongside the main Frindsbury Road and within the suburbs of Rochester may have survived in the redevelopment area. All exposed deposits and strata were archaeologically recorded, but no archaeological finds or deposits were encountered. It was evident that previous developments on the site had truncated the site and formed manmade terraces into the natural slope down to Frindsbury Road to the south. |
