An Anglo-Saxon cemetery of the 7th century AD that was unexpectedly encountered during housing development near Tadworth, in Banstead parish, in 1986, was the subject of salvage excavations. Despite problems resulting from poor recording of the excavations, the finds receiving little immediate conservation, and the reburial of the skeletal material, it is possible to investigate and discuss many aspects of what proves to be an interesting and important site, even though the grave goods are few.
