Archaeological work near Clacket Lane led to the discovery of two medieval sites which were subsequently excavated to reveal two pottery kilns and various contemporary features. Sites producing pottery known as Limpsfield ware have previously been discovered in this area and these most recent findings belong to this group. The work led to the recovery of large quantities of mid-13th to 14th century courseware and the detailed examination of this material has enabled a comprehensive report to be written. In addition features which predate the pottery production were found on the southern site and some of these are believed to be of prehistoric date. Two sections through the London-Lewes Roman road were also excavated.
