The Alice Holt/Farnham potters produced coarse, grey, kitchen wares on the Hampshire - Surrey border along the upper reaches of the headwater streams of the river Wey. The production centres so far known were at Farnham on the northern Wey, at Malthouse Farm, Kingsley, at Alice Holt and Baigents Bridge, Headley on the southern Wey, and at Tilford at the confluence of the two streams. Large-scale production took place from about AD 60 to the 5th century, but this may have been preceded by works on a smaller scale in the Iron Age and Claudian periods. Production reached its peak during the mid-late 4th ccntury when this industry dominated the London market and orhers in the south-east.
