Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East (ASE), the contracting division of the Centre for Applied Archaeology (CAA), Institute of Archaeology (IoA), University College London (UCL) was commissioned by Andrew Hobbs to undertake an archaeological watching brief during development works at Hemstead Forest Equestrian Centre, Benenden, kent, TN17 4AJ, (centred on NGR: TQ 80442 34743). The clay geology was encountered at 85.33m AOD in the northeast corner of the sand school. As the ground was higher towards the west, it was not necessary to strip the west side of the sand school down to this level. No archaeological features or artefacts were encountered relating to the Roman Road to the west of the site. A single undated ditch with a ceramic land drain inserted into the base is likely to be earlier than the mid-19th century. No other archaeological finds or features were encountered; therefore the development work will not impact upon features of archaeological importance. |
