Three sites in Reigate: 12-14 London Road, 20-22 and 74-76 High Street

DAVID WILLIAMS

This report brings together an excavation and two observations on three tenements backing onto the western and southern slopes of Reigate Castle. On all three sites there is evidence for construction of the castle's defences in the form of large amounts of dumped sand overlying medieval material. It is argued from this that the castle slopes may have been free from domestic buildings until the castle ceased to have any military significance. An excavation at 12-14 London Road also uncovered the remains of a building dating from the mid-17th century and which was demolished during the 18th century. Both archaeological and documentary evidence suggests that this was the first building on the site. Among the finds from London Road was a glass wine bottle containing urine and bent pins and which is identified as a witch bottle.
