Abstract: |
An archaeological Desk-based Assessment has been carried out at White Horse Barn, White Horse Lane, Ripley, Surrey in connection with a planning application for a proposed residential development. The Desk-based Assessment has established that the Site may have witnessed a limited amount of activity prior to the medieval period when a settlement at Ripley was established. During this period, the Site probably stood behind a building fronting the High Street opposite the possible market place, and is likely to have had back plot activities undertaken within it. The building that currently stands beside the Site, to front the High Street, was built c.1500 and was the White Horse Inn in the 19th century. In 1845, the inn owed two barns that still stand within the Site, whilst the south end of the Site was a garden. The inn closed in 1853. Since this time, the Site has undergone various phases of building work, which largely ended sometime between 1935 and 1973. Pre-existing archaeological deposits within the site, such as those that represent medieval and Post Medieval occupation, are likely to survive in pockets across the Site, particularly within its south end which has not been built upon. |
