SURREY ARCHAEOLOGICAL COLLECTIONS
Finds from Surrey 1997-9
This latest group of metal finds , was reported to up to the end of 1999 and all have been recovered using metal detectors. As with the previous catalogues of finds from Surrey (Williams 1996 and 1999) most of the prehistoric and Roman and all Saxon material is included here together with all notable medieval and post-medieval finds. Again, coins and tokens are excluded from listing, with the exception of those of the Iron Age, but records of other coins and tokens have been passed to the Sites and Monuments Record for the county. All the finds shown as coming from Peper Harow were found during a metal detector rally in March 1999. Many of the finds indicated as coming from Reigate were found in July 1998 to the east of Bancroft Road where a deep deposit of humic soil was removed prior to redevelopment. This area lay to the rear of the tenements on the east side of Bell Street and the finds listed probably form a fraction of what could have been recovered had more extensive work been possible. Three objects published here have been reported under the terms of the Treasure Act 1996.
