Description: | The archaeological collections are diverse and include important Palaeolithic material from sites in the Swanscombe and Dartford areas. Mesolithic and Neolithic material from North Kent is also represented. The main strength of the collection is Roman material from in and around the Borough and high quality Saxon artefacts from the Riseley (Horton Kirby) Anglo-Saxon cemetery site. The Museum houses some Medieval and Post-Medieval material from key local sites. The "Darenth Bowl" is a priceless early Christian relic from the Dark and a very important part of Kent's history. | Source: | Cornucopia - Discovering UK Collections | Address: | Market Street
