Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was conducted at Parcels 13 and 17, Thistle Hill, Minster, Isle of Sheppey ( NGR TQ 94858 71888), between the 7th to the 11th of March 2011. Twenty trenches measuring up to 30m in length were excavated. Limited evidence of medieval activity was revealed, in the form of a pit and two probable truncated pits or areas of trample. In addition, a series of intersecting ditches of early 20th century date are likely to represent military features such as practise or drainage trenches associated with the training or temporary settlement of troops on the island. |
