Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East was commissioned by Nicol Design Associates to conduct an archaeological watching brief during footings excavations for a new extension at 1 Post Office Terrace, Church Lane, Salehurst, Robertsbridge, East Sussex, TN32 5PJ. No archaeological remains of note where recorded in the watching brief, however, it should be noted that throughout most of the trench, natural deposits were not reached, and the potential that archaeology exists beneath the new extension cannot be ruled out. A buried soil horizon was recorded; however, this did not contain any visible dating evidence and so remains undated. A brick-built cistern or soakaway was cut through made ground deposits of 19th century date and is therefore more recent than this and is most probably Victorian. The soakaway is preserved in situ. There was no evidence of Saxon or medieval occupation in the location of the proposed development, either associated with the abbey and its outlying buildings or for a more domestic purpose. No data to address the set of specific research aims laid out in section 1.4 was recorded. |
