1066-1600

48-54, High Street, Bagshot

Second season of excavation by G H Cole for Surrey Heath Group of SyAS allowed examination of 13th and 14th century timber and stone structures. These included a large buttressed stone wall with associated 14th century occupation levels, flint cobbled floor and tile roof. (197)

The Kings Arms, High Street, Bagshot

Sample excavations by G H Cole for the Surrey Heath Group of SyAS produced evidence for a possible late medieval house platform with a robbed sandstone wall footing. The platform was cut by early 17th century and later pits, gullies and post holes. A backfiiled waterlogged area was interpreted, with the aid of documentary evidence, as possibly being 16th century fish ponds. (193)

Chertsey Abbey

Small-scale excavation by R.J Poulton for SCC arid Runnymede BC to check a newly uncovered section probably of the precinct wall. It proved to overlie levels with Saxo-Norman pottery below 1.5m in depth. Human remains were recovered by P Larkin of Chertsey Museum in observation of small-scale work in the Abbey cemetery area.

Chart Lane, Reigate

Excavation by D W Williams for HAG on open land opposite Reigate parish church, to test for Saxon settlement evidence. No features earlier than 19th century were found, and no finds earlier than the 13th except for two shell-tempered sherds. (198)
