Abstract: |
This report presents the results of an archaeological evaluation carried out by the Museum of London Archaeology Service (MoLAS) on the site of the proposed Oxted Community Hall), Oxted, Surrey. The report was commissioned from MoLAS by Oxted Community Hall Appeal Committee. The site lies within an Area of High Archaeological Potential as defined by the Surrey County Council and within part of a churchyard, requiring a Faculty, or a Licence issued by the office of Chancellor of the Diocesan authorities to carry out archaeological work. Following the recommendations of the County's Principal Archaeologist two evaluation trenches were excavated on the site. The results of the field evaluation have helped to refine the initial assessment of the archaeological potential of the site. Natural sand was found in both trenches ranging from 105.60m at its highest, on the east side of the site, and 105.11m OD, its lowest, on the northern side. The natural was sealed with topsoil and turf. No archaeological evidence was found. During the evaluation, any additional graves found, and not previously located on the current site survey plan, were added. |
