| Our archaeological evaluation at St Martin’s Field, New Romney has taken place this month. Following the survey work we carried out earlier in the year, we have excavated a number of test pits to look for evidence of the church. On the first day we didn’t find any evidence of a building but on the second and third days we found what appears to be two of the buttresses and lots of demolition material. We also found some medieval floor tile and window glass. The finds will now be processed and analysed by our volunteers before being sent to experts who will give us their opinion on the material. |
All of the work was carried out by a group of volunteers who were trained in excavation and recording techniques. If you would like to get involved with future excavations on the Marsh, please contact Lucie for more details.
