Abstract:
Following the recommendation of an earlier archaeological assessment an evaluation by trial trenching was carried out on land at Duncroft, Moor Lane, Staines on the proposed site of a housing development. Numerous features of archaeological interest were discovered, the majority appearing to date from the Mid to Late Saxon period, with others of probable prehistoric and Roman date. The Saxon material was of great importance, being comparatively rare, and seemed to point to the use of 'Church Island' as the principal focus of occupation in Staines, bridging the gap between the Roman and the Saxo-Norman (and later) urban settlement on 'Town Island'. Further archaeological work was recommended. [AIP]
