Full Description

A possible post-medieval marl pit was identified during an evaluation carried out on land at Marlpit House and the Chase by Archaeology South-East in 2010. The possible marl pit comprised a substantial landscape feature visible in two of the trenches. This was determined, via the study of historic mapping, to potentially represent a post-medieval marl pit which probably predatedthe construction of Marlpit House. (1)
