Abstract: |
During the course of the ground reduction and excavation of the footing trenches for an extension at White Hart Cottage, Compton, Surrey, no archaeological features were noted. However, a comparatively large quantity of artefacts was recovered from the excavations. The artefacts were of pottery, ceramic building material and fifty four fragments of clay pipe. The artefacts had a date range of 1550 to 1900+ and were approximately contemporary with the house. The artefacts suggested a rubbish pit or midden to the house but no evidence was found for a cut. It is possible the artefacts were redeposited during the raising of the lawn area. |
