Two trenches across the main lawn revealed fragmentary walls of possible 17th c date and an 18th-c wall to the SW. To the N much disturbance had occurred during the construction of the railway but some Tudor and 17th-c material, and the corner of the 19th-c gatehouse was found at the E end. A short trench to the rear of the buildings revealed 19th-c walls identified with a swimming pool and latrine blocks belonging to the Greenwich Hospital School.
