Abstract

In August 2008, Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried out a seven trench
archaeological field evaluation at St. John’s Roman Catholic
Comprehensive School, Gravesend, Kent (TQ 659 733) on behalf of Kent
County Council and Kier Group PLC. The evaluation followed deskbased
archaeological and development impact assessments of the site
carried out for the Council, which form part of the ongoing BSF schools
development programme in Kent. The evaluation revealed no evidence of
significant archaeological occupation or activity. Deep deposits of made
ground in two trenches may represent infilled clay quarrying areas
associated with a 19th-century brick-works thought to have been situated
to the south of the site.
During January and February 2009 Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried out
an archaeological watching brief at St John’s Roman Catholic
Comprehensive School, Gravesend in Kent. Kent County Council
commissioned the work in advance of works carried out by Kier Group
PLC. The watching brief formed the last phase of archaeological
investigations at the site during part of Wave 3 of the Kent Building
Schools for the Future (BSF) programme and revealed no archaeological
features.
