Surrey Archaeological Society Research Volumes 1
1974
Surrey Archaeological Society Research Volumes 10; Petters Sports Field, Egham
Martin O'Connell
This is a report on the results of the two seasons of excavation that took place in a former sports ground, known as Petters Sports Field, on the north-east of Egham town centre. The first season lasted between 21 August 1976 and 14 March 1977 and was followed by a second season between 8 August and 2 September 1977. The work was funded by the DoE and directed by Martin O’Connell on behalf of the Surrey Archaeological Society. Petters Sports Field was bisected by the M25 South Orbital Motorway in 1975–6 and the rest of the field is now under a long-term threat of redevelopment.Evidence of multi-period settlement was uncovered and at least six phases were identified, the earliest of which can be dated to the Neolithic period while the latest is as recent as the post-medieval period. The most important phase of activity on the site occurred during the Late Bronze to Early Iron Age and included a large ditch in which a hoard of bronzes, probably belonging to a bronzesmith, had been deliberately deposited. Several hut circles, together with a number of pits, were also identified which could have been contemporary with the burial of the hoard. The Roman period followed after an apparent absence of occupation in the Iron Age. The principal Roman features were a 1st century ditch and palisade trench. Part of a Roman roadside ditch was also excavated and the dateable material obtained suggested that it was already becoming infilled in the 4th century. A medieval ditch was examined as well as several small post-medieval features. Because of the lack of dating and stratigraphic evidence a number of features could not be assigned to any particular phase of occupation.

Results of the 1954 excavations are presented and related to earlier work and to historical and cartographic information. Very little evidence was recovered for the site of the pre-Conquest abbey, but the later precinct can be reconstructed in some detail. The Norman church had apsidal chapels to the transepts and a triple-apsed E end projecting beyond the ambulatory. Claustral buildings lay to the N, nearest the Abbey River. Modifications, mostly of c 1250-1300, squared the apses, added a cemetery over the Chertsey tile kiln S of the church, and provided an outer court. Later came a walled precinct and an elaborate system of moats and fishponds. At the Dissolution the site was quarried to build Oatlands Palace.

TQ 293559. Identification of the site through documents is reasonably certain. First use of the site was in second quarter of 13th century for iron smelting and forging. About 1270 this building was demolished for a timber-framed aisled hall with solar and kitchcn; later a separate kitchen was added. A smith's house was built and ironworking continued until mid-14th century. After a 50-year gap the smith's house was refurbished and a large forge built and operated; the complete plan of the ironworking area was recovered. Two small kilns for ?roof tiles were also examined.

Martin O'Connell
Summarizes the main problems needing solution for nine Surrey towns of medieval or earlier origin, none of which has received systematic archaeological attention. A programme of small-scale low-cost excavations should suffice where stratification is not deep and where few major redevelopments are planned. However, full-time excavation would be desirable in Chertsey, Dorking and Guildford.
