Metal detector survey under the direction of D Williams of SCC recovered only three objects pre-dating the 17th century. These were a buckle plate of medieval or Tudor date, a brooch dating to the 1st century AD, and an Early Iron Age, c 600–450BC, bow brooch.

Investigation by T Howe and G Jackson of SCC of a site containing human remains discovered during the excavation of a soakaway. Examination suggested that the remains were archaeological in nature (not criminal as was first suspected), and comprised two separate burials, although the exact date of the interments was obscure. It is hoped that additional analyses will be possible to determine more clearly the origin of the remains, although Saxon burials have been recorded in the area previously.

Watching brief by G Jackson of SCC during the construction of a new house revealed no finds or features of archaeological interest.

Watching brief by T Howe of SCC during the creation of a tennis court revealed a post-medieval wall.

Recording by D Williams of SCC of Roman pottery in a length of ditch exposed during the creation of a basement. (365)

Archaeological observations and recording by M Higgins of SCC prior to renovation of the 18th century well head structure revealed evidence of the incorrect reconstruction – by an early 20th century date – of the supporting structure to the roof over the well head.

Archaeological monitoring by T Howe of SCC of path construction and creation of disabled access to the museum. No finds or features of archaeological interest were revealed, as excavations were not of sufficient depth to reach the underlying archaeological deposits.

Metal detector survey and excavation of a trench by D Williams of SCC in an area adjoining the Scheduled villa where a dispersed Roman coin hoard had been reported in the 1970s. No coins were found, but various Roman finds and a feature, interpreted as a robber trench of a building demolished in the Roman period, was revealed. (368)

Watching brief by T Howe of SCC, on behalf of Surrey Police, following the discovery of human remains at the site during refurbishment works. The partial remains of two individuals were recovered. Although evidence for post-inhumation disturbance was clear as the remains were commingled within an obvious later feature, no firm dating evidence was noted. It was apparent, however, that the remains were of an archaeological nature rather than of interest to the police. It was thought that they may have been burials displaced during the construction of the property and reburied at the time.

Monitoring of groundworks by T Howe of SCC during construction works. No finds or features of archaeological interest were seen in what was a particularly limited exercise. However, intact soil profiles were observed at depth, suggesting that archaeological remains could survive in an undisturbed condition in the area.
