Abstract:
This report presents the results of the archaeological excavation carried out by Archaeology South-East at This is a post-excavation assessment of the results of a series of archaeological investigations along the route of the Outwood to Buckland Strategic Water Main, Surrey. The archaeological works were commissioned by Clancy Docwra on behalf of their client, Sutton and East Surrey Water plc. The pipeline was approximately c.17km in length and the archaeological works were undertaken between 4th March and 13th September 2013. The 108 evaluation trenches undertaken along the route of the pipeline identified two sites of particular archaeological significance in the vicinity of the village of Buckland: a prehistoric and Roman site at Plot 12 and a medieval site at Plots 7 and 8. The earliest activity was a Neolithic/Early Bronze Age pit at Plot 12, although the most substantial occupation of the site was in the Roman period with successive enclosures straddling the Greensand ridge overlooking 'the Sloughs' stream to the west. The earlier Roman enclosure had evidence of domestic iron-working/smithing, possibly relating to a farmstead. The medieval site at Plots 11 and 12 was characterised by an intensive occupation during the 13th century of a succession of timber framed buildings with masonry sill wall foundations. This occupation is interpreted as the original core of the village and the most likely location of the Late Anglo-Saxon settlement and with its demise in the 14th century, the focus of the village shifted c.800m south to top of the Greensand ridge, where the present village green is located today. Other than these two sites, very little else was found along the c.17km pipeline route.
