Two phases of occupation dating to the Middle Iron Age and the transition between the Late Iron Age and Roman periods were revealed at the former War Memorial Hospital in Carshalton, which had previously been the subject of an excavation in 2008. The features that may be associated with a farmstead or small settlement consisted of a number of pits including grain storage pits, which were backfilled with ritual items such as placed animal carcasses, human longbones and fragments of pottery.
