A rapid survey of the common was undertaken by I Dormor for SCC’s Planning Dept, as part of an ongoing project examining Areas of Historic Landscape Value.
A survey of the group of barrows (SU 853 406) overlooking Frensham Great Pond was undertaken by the RCHME, for SyAS, in advance of restoration works - much of the damage to the barrows is thought to be the result of WWII activity. (310)
Work by A & K D Graham of SyAS identified a number of other possible barrow sites around the Great Pond. (301)
One of these, a mound on Warren Hill (SU 843 404), was subsequently surveyed by K Pringle and trial trenched by K D Graham. The mound was found to have been constructed artificially and included the remains of turves, but there was no sign of a surrounding ditch. Samples were taken for pollen analysis.
