The Excavation of a Medieval Rural Settlement at the Pepper Hill Lane Electricity Substation, Northfleet, Kent (Oxford Archaeology Occasional Paper, Band 10) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The construction of a new electricity substation at Northfleet, Kent provided an opportunity to investigate the archaeological remains at the site, and Oxford Archaeology excavated in 1999. The excavation revealed field boundaries, paddocks and structural remains dating to the 11th and 12th centuries, possibly relating to the settlement known as Wenifalle in the late 12th century. The settlement of Wenifalle survived in the form of a nearby farm until the 20th century. The proximity of the Roman settlement at nearby Springhead has tended to distract from the later settlement in the area, so the results of this excavation represent a useful addition to the modest body of evidence relating to medieval settlement in North Kent.
