Watching brief by N Griffin and J Russell of ASE carried out prior to construction of an extension revealed no finds or features of archaeological interest.

Watching brief by J Stevenson of SCAU during groundworks on extensions and alterations to the building. The work exposed post-medieval parts of the building, including a chalk floor, and following on from the work of P Gray and A Hughes (345), a photographic record of the interior was produced.

Watching brief by G Jackson of SCC on works for a new extension revealed a stone wall of unknown date. The wall is outside the area affected by foundation work and has been left in situ.

Watching brief carried out by N Shaikhley of SCAU during redevelopment on the neighbouring property to `Hillview’ and the builder’s yard, revealed the site to have been sufficiently disturbed to have removed any archaeological remains which may once have existed.

Three further stages of evaluation by J Perry of SutAS revealed no finds or features of archaeological interest.

Landscape assessment by N Bannister for the Woodlands Trust, involving the recording both of features identified from maps and documents, and previously unknown earthworks. The most frequent features recorded were banks and ditches associated with former land divisions, and chalk and flint quarries the next most common features. Other features present included a possible prehistoric field system surviving in Great Church Wood, and the earthworks for a complete 19th century rifle range in Marden Park Woods.

As was the case with similar stages, the final stage of evaluation by J Perry of SutAS did not reveal any finds or features of archaeological interest.

Site visit by D Hawkins of CgMs revealed that no topsoil or buried soil appeared to be present and that the site had already been truncated down to the level of the natural clay. No cultural material predating the 20th century was revealed.

Evaluation by G Hayman of SCAU in advance of residential development revealed no finds or features of archaeological interest.
