Between January 1992 and October 1997 watching briefs, evaluations
and an excavation were conducted on the route of the Wainscott
Northern Link or by-pass. This relief road was constructed over a
distance of 5km from the junction of the A2 and M2, west of the
original Medway crossing at Rochester north-east to the Four Elms
roundabout on the A228 north of Wainscott. Other than scatters of
loose finds, little archaeological material was discovered over
most of the route, but west of the Four Elms roundabout a
multi-period settlement site was excavated. About 350 separate
features and deposit sequences were examined, which may be divided
into four periods: Prehistoric; Roman; Anglo-Saxon; Medieval and
Post-medieval. The site, excavation and finds are all presented and
assessed here and each period discussed.
