HON. PATRICK JENKIN MP SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT 1. At present the New Barn residential area is split between Dartford Borough, Sevenoaks District and Gravesham Borough; the part situated in Dartford is in the parish of ^outhfleet; the part in Sevenoaks is in the parish of Longfield, whilst the part in Gravesham is unparished. On 30 November 1979» Gravesham Borough Council requested ue to review the boundaries between the districts of Gravesham, Dartford and Sevenoaks in the vicinity of New Barn. Their request was in response to representations from the New Barn Ratepayers Association for the whole of the New Barn residential area to be incorporated within Gravesham Borough. The Association based their representations on a survey of opinion which they carried out in 1978 among the residents of New Barn on the question of whether the area should be under one authority, and if so, which one. The results indicated that a majority (8?#) of residents indicating a view preferred to see New Barn under one authority and a large proportion (6990 of these considered that this should be Gravesham. 2. We noted that Kent County Council, Dartford Borough Council, Sevenoaks District Council, and Longfield Parish Council were all opposed to a review beinp undertaken at that time, although Kent County Council and Dartford BOrough Council did a^ree that the current boundaries in the New Barn area were not wholly satisfactory.

  • A Romano-British Site at Swanscombe, Kent
    A ROMANO-BRITISH SITE AT SWANSCOMBE, KENT Museum of London Archaeology Mortimer Wheeler House 46 Eagle Wharf Road London N1 7ED tel: 020 7410 2200 fax: 020 7410 2201 www.museumoflondon.org.ukl/archaeology A ROMANO-BRITISH SITE AT SWANSCOMBE, KENT ANTHONY MACKINDER with contributions by JON GIORGI, RICHENDA GOFFIN, LYNNE KEYS, LOUISE RAYNER, KEVIN REILLY, TERENCE PAUL SMITH, ANGELA WARDLE Summary In April and May 1997, the Museum of London Archaeology Service (MoLAS), known since October 2008 as Museum of London Archaeology (MOLA), excavated a Romano-British site in the grounds of the former Swanscombe High School in advance of the construction of the Swan Valley Community School. The approximate centre of the excavation (site code SSF97) was at Ordnance Survey National Grid Reference (NGR) 560814 173926). The principal archaeological features defined on the site were all Roman in date and included a rectangular walled enclosure, formed by 1.0m wide chalk walls and measuring 37.0m by 34.60m, which surrounded a robbed stone foundation, probably for a shrine or monument. In the late 2nd century AD the enclosure became part of a farmstead. A corn drier, rubbish pits and a concentration of postholes, probably the remains of several timber buildings, were present within it. The farmstead was part of a wider, rural landscape and several ditches provided evidence of field boundaries outside the enclosure. The enclosure lay to the east of a Roman road, encountered during the evaluation of the site, running north-west from the small town of Vagniacis at Springhead. The ditches were backfilled in the later 3rd century AD with dumped material which included debris from ironworking taking place nearby.
