Abstract:		 A desk-based assessment was undertaken of the areas covered by three alternative schemes proposed for the alleviation of traffic congestion within Epsom town centre. None of the proposals affected any sites recorded on the SMR, but an Area of High Archaeological Potential was affected. This area had been defined on the basis of the historic core of the 17th century spa town, which had developed from an earlier village. Archaeological remains recorded in the general vicinity included Saxon and undated burials, the foundations of a 17th century timber-framed building and a dene hole which had contained possible Romano-British pottery. Roman Stane Street passed nearby. It was concluded that most of the proposed works along existing roads would have little archaeological impact due to previous disturbance, but that the construction of a new relief road, proposed for two of the options, would have a potentially greater impact. The implementation of appropriate mitigation strategies, including field evaluation, was recommended. [AIP]
