The first phase of an evaluation by R Oram of TVAS in advance of residential redevelopment did not reveal any features or finds of archaeological interest. The second phase, undertaken by A Taylor of TVAS the following year, revealed evidence of truncation, from both the construction of earlier farm buildings and the removal of contaminated ground, but again no features or finds of archaeological interest. An Anti-Aircraft Defence Tower on the site underwent a programme of building recording by C Challis of TVAS prior to its demolition. The tower is constructed from brick and reinforced concrete and provided a roof for an anti-aircraft gun. The tower is a twin to one surviving at Brooklands, and would have been constructed at the same time as its twin between early 1941 and the start of 1942, to protect the aircraft factories at Brooklands.
