Baker's Hole, Paleolithic archaeological site in Ebbsfleet Valley, England.
The Baker's Hole site extends across 6.9 hectares of former quarry land adjacent to the Ebbsfleet International railway station in Kent, England.
The location gained recognition when James Cross started collecting artifacts from Southfleet Pit after quarrying operations began in 1909.
The British Museum houses 299 pieces from the Smith Collection, including significant Levallois cores and flakes produced by Neanderthal populations.
The archaeological site remains inaccessible to visitors as it sits on private property and has been largely backfilled following quarrying operations.
Kent County Council recognizes this location as a Mousterian factory, containing a progression through Clactonian, Acheulian, and Mousterian archaeological periods.
