Wisley Sewage Works, Wisley

Watching brief carried out by J Perry of SutAS during the construction of a mobile telephone network mast. Numerous fragments of worked and burnt flint were recovered, together with a fragment of burnt flint-tempered pottery of probable Late Bronze Age to Early Iron Age date, from sandy deposits interpreted as being riverine in origin. The report concludes that there was no evidence for archaeology in the trench.

Reigate Road Quarry (Franks’ Sandpit), Betchworth

A field survey, watching brief and excavation by J Perry of SutAS was undertaken in advance of sand extraction and close to a prehistoric and Roman site previously excavated by D Williams. The field survey and watching brief revealed quantities of Neolithic and Bronze Age struck flint, burnt flint and some Mesolithic struck flint. A small quantity of Bronze Age, Roman and medieval pottery was also recovered. These finds were spread over the whole field though there was a concentration of finds, particularly Bronze Age, at the highest point.
