Abstract/Summary
‘Terrain Archaeology carried out archaeological observations and recording during the formation of two test areas of new gravel surface for the Max Gate drive. The tarmac and sub-base was removed by machine to reveal a hard flint gravel surface below. This surface may be an early twentieth century replacement for the original gravel drive laid down by Thomas Hardy, when the house was built.’
