Abstract:
A watching brief was undertaken by Archaeology South-East on behalf of Jackson Civil Engineering and KCC on a linear road improvement scheme at Poorhole Lane, Broadstairs, Kent from 8th July to 7th August 2014. No significant archaeological artefacts, deposits or features were recorded at the site. Only two, small late 19th or 20th century posthole features cut the subsoil in the north-western part of this probably associated with tree planting activity in this area. A similar stratigraphic sequence was observed across the remainder of the site with topsoil over subsoil over brickearth over the natural chalk. No evidence was found of the proposed plague pit that has been thought to give Poorhole Lane its name. Consideration of the historical mapping and topographic evidence shows the suggested location is unlikely owing to the presence of an early post-medieval house within a quarried hollow at this point.
