Second season of excavation led by H Sheldon of BC and J Cotton of EEHAS, on an area of higher ground overlooking the Roman settlement of Ewell and Stane Street and where traces of Roman activity were located in the 1970s. Four trenches were opened in a line running north–south between those excavated in 2006.

Watching brief by M Sims of OA did not reveal any finds or features of archaeological interest, and no continuation of the deposits recorded during the 2003 excavation of the Glyn House site was observed

Evaluation by N Cowlard and F Pemberton of EEHAS recovered flints and Roman pottery.

Watching brief by N Cowlard of EEHAS during development where much of the groundworks proposed had already been completed did not reveal any finds or features of archaeological interest.

Watching brief by N Cowlard and F Pemberton of EEHAS revealed no evidence of Stane Street or any other finds or features of archaeological interest.

Evaluation by J Perry of SutAS revealed no finds or features of archaeological interest.

Evaluation by J Langthorne, and a watching brief during geotechnical works by K Bower, both of PCA, revealed evidence of extensive past truncation and no finds or features of archaeological interest.

Evaluation by J Robertson of SCAU did not reveal any finds or features of archaeological interest.

Watching brief by N Cowlard of EEHAS during development where most of the groundworks involved had already been completed did not reveal any finds or features of archaeological interest

Watching brief by N Cowlard of EEHAS in an area where the precise location of Stane Street was not known revealed no finds or features of archaeological interest. A subsequent excavation of four test pits by EEHAS and SyAS along the eastern property boundary did not reveal any evidence of the road or roadside features, but the lack of subsoil in three of the trenches (and its presence in the fourth trench only at a greater depth) suggests that the site had been scraped in the past.
