  • Prehistoric Settlement Patterns on the North Kent Coast Between Seasalter and the Wantsum
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 129 2009 PREHISTORIC SETTLEMENT PATTERNS ON THE NORTH KENT COAST BETWEEN SEASALTER AND THE WANTSUM TIM ALLEN The area of the north Kent coast addressed in the following study comprises the London Clay-dominated coastal flats, levels and low hills lying north of the Blean, west of the Wantsum Channel and east of Seasalter Level (Map 1). The area measures approximately 15km (10 miles) east-west and 4km (2½ miles) north-south, this representing 60km2. Archaeological remains dating from the Mesolithic to the Roman period were examined with the intention of determining whether significant changes in settlement/ occupation patterns could be discerned over this protracted period and, if so, whether the factors underlying those changes could be identified. A total of 32 sites were investigated and are listed below (Reculver, despite its Late Iron Age origin, has been excluded because of its largely military function during the Roman period, see Rivet and Smith 1981, 446-7; Philp 1959, 105). The statistical evidence derived from the sites is necessarily indicative rather than precise and, as new sites are constantly being uncovered, the list cannot be fully comprehensive. It is also probable that some of the sites represent parts of the same large, widespread settlements, others evidence of relatively transient occupation activity. Despite this it is proposed that the sample is large enough for significant conclusions to be drawn in terms of period-specific settlement activity and for new insights to be gained into the way settlement patterns have changed in the area over several thousand years. Background The archaeological potential of the study area was considered to be low until recently, probably because of its desolate and thinly settled nature during recent and historical times, as this description of the parish of Herne, in the eastern part of the coastal levels, makes clear: This parish is situated about six miles north-eastwards from Canterbury, in 189 TIM ALLEN Map.

The site is located within an area of high archaeological potential associated with the prehistoric periods, in particular potential Bronze Age and Iron Age settlements with strong domestic, industrial economic, political and religious functions. This evidence is reviewed and it is recommended in this case that further archaeological assessment will be required and that an archaeological field evaluation comprising trial trenching should be carried out. This will provide an additional assessment of the nature, depth and level of survival of any archaeological deposits present within the extents of the site and used to inform further mitigation as necessary. i Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment in Advance of Development at Hillborough, Herne Bay, Kent Contents 1 INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT BACKGROUND ................................................................................... 5 2 SITE LOCATION, TOPOGRAPHY AND GEOLOGY .................................................................................

  • Swine, Salt and Seafood: a Case Study of Anglo-Saxon and Early Medieval Settlement in North-East Kent
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society SWINE, SALT AND SEAFOOD: A CASE STUDY OF ANGLO-SAXON AND EARLY MEDIEVAL SETTLEMENT IN NORTH-EAST KENT TIM ALLEN Archaeological works undertaken during the summer of 1999 by the Canterbury Archaeological Trust in Chestfield, a mile east of Whitstable, exposed the remains of ditched enclosures dating to the Late Anglo-Saxon and medieval periods. Animal bones, principally of pig, along with other domestic refuse, including large quantities of datable potsherds, were recovered, suggesting that the enclosures were animal pens (almost certainly swine pens). The Chestfield enclos- ures were situated close to dwellings which probably comprised the eastern part of the embryonic settlement. The results of documentary research were consistent with the archaeological findings in showing that Chestfield originated as a small, impoverished Mid to Late Anglo-Saxon settlement (then apparently unnamed) which eventually developed into a prosperous manorial estate. The archaeological works exposed part of a droveway which led into the enclosure complex and which separated it from the dwell- ings. The droveway appeared to represent the northern termination of Radfall Road, an ancient road surviving to the north and east as an extensive but only partly intact embanked woodland track (Map 1). Archaeological and documentary evidence suggest that the Chest- field drove road/Radfall Road, along with the Radfall, another em- banked woodland trackway, formed part of an Anglo-Saxon and early medieval road system, and that these roads may have originated as Anglo-Saxon droveways leading from small agricultural settlements such as Chestfield to the swine pastures of the Blean.

  • (DWMP) River Stour Catchment
    Drainage and Wastewater Management Plan (DWMP) River Stour Catchment 1 Drainage and Wastewater Management Plans River Stour Catchment - DRAFT Strategic Context for the Stour Catchment DWMP The Environment Agency has previously defined the River Basin District catchments in their River Basin Management Plans prepared in response to the European Union’s Water Framework Directive. These river basin catchments are based on the natural configuration of bodies of water (rivers, estuaries, lakes etc.) within a geographical area, and relate to the natural watershed of the main rivers. We are using the same catchment boundaries for our Level 2 DWMPs. A map of the Stour river basin catchment is shown in figure 1. Figure 1: The Stour river basin catchment in north-east Kent, England LONDON 2 Drainage and Wastewater Management Plans River Stour Catchment - DRAFT Overview of the River Stour Catchment The Stour catchment drains just over 1,110km2 of Kent and includes the rivers Stour, Dour, North and South Streams and a number of small streams making up the Oyster Coast Brooks. The catchment incorporates rivers, lakes, estuarine and coastal waters as well as groundwater within the rock aquifers. The Upper Great Stour (also known as the West Stour) meets the East Stour near the large urban area of Ashford. From here, it flows north-east through rural chalk downlands into the historic city of Canterbury. It is joined by the Little Stour and flows eastwards through internationally significant wetland habitat areas of Stodmarsh and Hacklinge Marshes to the Cinque Port of Sandwich before it discharges into the sea at Pegwell Bay.
