Abstract:
In July and August 2010, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) undertook archaeological monitoring and recording of groundworks assocaited with the construction of a new all-weather floodlit sports pitch at Swadelands School. Lenham, Kent (NGR TQ 892 523). The monitoring was undertaken during the various stages of development specifically, the removal of topsoil, the site grading which comprised a cut and fill operation, and the excavation of services. The site grading exposed archaeological features at the north-eastern end of the proposed sports pitch, and a soakaway excavated at the south-western end also revealed archaeological features. The earliest feature (F1003) dated to the Early Bronze Age (EBA) and comprised a steep-sided ditch, aligned NE/SW, and extended the entire length of the sports pitch. Within the soakaway trench Pit F1023 also contained EBA pottery. Adjacent to pit F10123 Gully F1025 contained a single plantform flint core consistent with ?Late Neolithic or Bronze Age reduction technology. At the northern end of the site Gully F1009 contained Neolithic - Iron Age pottery. Also at the northen end of the site undated pits (F1015, ?F1017, F1019, F1031), undated ditch (F1007) and two undated ?hearths (F1005 and F10011) were recorded. Natural features comprised Tree Hollow F1013 and seven unexcavated tree hollows, and four natural hollows (F1021, F1029, F1017 and F1033).
