The North Downs Trackway

D J TURNER

The prehistoric and Romano-British evidence for a trackway along the North Downs is reviewed and the conclusion reached that, east of Guildford, neither the North Downs ridge nor the scarp foot was used as a significant through route in later prehistoric or Romano-British times. The evidence for the Anglo-Saxon settlement of Surrey is noted and it is concluded that there is also no evidence for a through route along the North Downs in pagan English times. It is suggested, however, that there was a route via the Hog's Back and north-eastwards from Guildford to join Stane Street near Ewell and that this route could have had Iron Age origins. It is suggested that the terraceway east of Titsey was established in the 7th century but that there is little evidence that this ever formed an important through road.
