Abstract:
A detailed gradiometer survey was conducted over land south of Canterbury Road West and adjacent to Cottington Road Ramsgate, Kent (centred on NGR A- 634372, 164063; B- 634259, 164223; C- 634457, 165021). The project was commissioned by Courtley Consultants Ltd with the aim of establishing the presence, or otherwise, and nature of detectable archaeological features in support of the development of the site for housing within Thanet District Council's Draft Local Plan. The site comprises three arable fields located to the west of the town of Cliffs End, covering an area of 7 ha. The geophysical survey was undertaken from the 24th - 28th August 2015. The detailed gradiometer survey has demonstrated the presence of a number of anomalies of archaeological interest predominantly in Fields A and B which are to the north and south of Cottington Road. The key features identified as being of archaeological interest are primarily ditchlike features. Potential interpretations for anomalies of archaeological interest include a ring ditch which may relate to a round barrow, at least two enclosures, one oval and another rectilinear which demonstrates different phases within the site, and areas of human activity (indicated by a localised mass of increased magnetic response). Additionally, this archaeological investigation has detected further areas of increased magnetic response and evidence for historic cultivation as well as modern service routes.
