Abstract: |
A desk-based assessment was undertaken in response to a planning condition. The site lay about 1km to the north of a SAM (St George's Hill Iron Age Hillfort) and close to several Areas of High Archaeological Potential. The report concluded that there was a low potential for archaeological remains of all periods. There was no evidence for settlement or other substantial use of the site prior to the early 20th century. Isolated Palaeolithic and Neolithic finds were recorded in the site vicinity, but evidence for prehistoric settlement was confined to Iron Age finds within the area of the hillfort and in the Wey Valley to the west. A few Roman finds were noted in proximity to the site, including pottery and a coin hoard, but there was little or no evidence for Saxon, medieval or post-medieval activity. It was most likely that any remains from these periods would be limited to isolated artefacts or small assemblages, and to evidence of later post-medieval land use. [Au(abr)] |
