Abstract: |
The assessment showed that the archaeological potential of the surrounding area was relatively low, although it may have been more accurate to describe it as uncertain. The site lay well beyond the limits of Merstham village and was therefore unlikely to have produced any evidence on the development of the settlement. Early cartographic evidence revealed that the proposed quarry extension had remained undeveloped arable land, the closest dwellings being those at Woosted Green, a short, single row of houses, which fronted onto the main road.
