Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation consisting of 6 trenches (all approximately 40m by 2m by 0.5-1m in depth) in advancement of the redevelopment of Tolworth playing fields. Three of the trenches contained no archaeological deposits. Two trenches contained subsoil with a substantial amount of Roman pot and a further trench contained a ditch with Roman pot in its primary fill. The earliests deposit found in all six trenches was natural clay. While it is clear that there are traces of Romano-British activity on site it is suspected that the bulk of archaeological deposits have been truncated if not obliterated by terracing in the 1970s. |
