Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological and geoarchaeological evaluation was undertaken at the Former DIY Store, Bridge Street, Dover Kent. The work was undertaken between the 29th of April and 7th of May 2009 on behalf of Wm Morrisons Supermarkets PLC. Four evaluation trenches initially sampled the surface archaeology and three geoarchaeological test pits, situated at the end of three of the trenches, investigated the geological sequence. The evaluation trenches revealed primarily Post-Medieval activity including evidence of Tenement housing, a well possibly associated with industrial activity and various unknown structures. Deeper excavations revealed evidence of finds of a Mediaeval and Prehistoric date indicating possibly activity within this vicinity. The first natural horizon varied in depth from 6.513m OD in the north of the site and 7.081m OD in the south of the site. |
