Abstract:		 A 23 trench archaeological evaluation was carried out by Archaeology South East (ASE) at the site of the former Mid Kent College campus, Chatham, Kent in advance of the redevelopment. The work was carried out in July 2011 and was commissioned by CgMs on behalf of Countryside Properties. The trenches can be divided into two groups: those on the hill-top and those on the eastern hill slope. Apart from trenches 8 and 10 located on the cusp of the eastern hill-slope, all the trenches located on the hill-top were devoid of cut archaeological features and finds suggesting this area has been previously truncated, either during the construction of the 19th century fort or, more likely, the construction of the college in the 20th century. The trenches located on the hill-slope were similarly devoid of archaeological features and finds. No buried topsoil deposit was found suggesting before the levelling material was dumped, the area was stripped of topsoil. The undated features appeared to survive to the periphery of the hill-top but their shallow depth suggests they also have suffered a degree of horizontal truncation. There is no indication of the date or function of these features despite their complete excavation within the trenches.
