Abstract:
An archaeological investigation was conducted at 149-156 Snargate Street between 11th January and 7th March 2016. The site was located at the base of a chalk cliff. IInvestigations revealed the natural drift geology in all areas of investigation, this was a flint gravel beach shingle. Two phases of archaeological activities were noted during the works. The earliest of these was post-medieval dated between 17th and 18th century. The earliest deposits of this phase were the ground consolidation deposits laid down to create a stable working platform form the construction of buildings. The walls of three basements, internal ground floor walls and surface make-up deposits associated with these properties were seen across the study area. The next phase of activities was 19th and 20th century in date. This phase was again dominated by masonry structures and surface deposits. These represented alterations and repairs to the existing properties, and included a fourth basement to the north of the site and the entrance to a World War Two tunnel network located in the cliffs behind the site.
