Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East (ASE), the contracting division of The Centre for Applied Archaeology at the Institute of Archaeology, University College London (UCL), was commissioned by Chartway Group Ltd to undertake a geophysical survey on Land at Stone House Farm, Bapchild, Kent, NGR 592763 163482. The work was undertaken between Tuesday 10th and Friday 20th April 2018. The strongest evidence for possible cut features is noted in the east of the site along with nearby magnetic debris. Areas of magnetic debris (dotted brown) are likely to be caused by ground disturbance or demolished buildings. Some of which may be relatively recent due to fly tipping and trackway maintenance. A probable geological feature such as a palaeochannel is observed running across the site. Dipolar anomalies may indicate thermoremanent features such as kilns or furnaces. However, these anomalies are more likely to represent near surface ferrous (iron) objects within this survey. Areas of magnetic debris and disturbance indicate the remains of the demolished Stones Farm site and associate services. Ploughing is indicated by parallel anomalies observed across the site. The anomalies show a pattern of ploughing that cross each other showing different phases of ploughing have taken place |
