Abstract: |
This report presents the results of an archaeological evaluation carried out by Archaeology South-East at Hermitage Quarry, Oaken Wood, Maidstone, Kent. NGR 571685, 155758, on the 14th September 2017. The fieldwork was commissioned by CgMs Consulting on behalf of Gallagher Group to undertake further archaeological and investigations at Hermitage Quarry in advance of further quarrying. Four trenches measuring up to 80m in length were planned. Due to prior ground reduction work on the site only one of the proposed trenches was able to be excavated. Trench 3, revealed evidence of the backfill of an earlier (probably post-medieval) quarry. The remains associated with this feature were limited to waste once extraction of usable building stone had taken place. |
