Epsom & Ewell

Nonsuch Park, Ewell

Excavation by the Friends of Nonsuch Society in the stable block, led to the discovery of stone foundations thought to contain re-used stone from the demolished Nonsuch Palace. Stucco from the palace’s exterior decorative scheme was also recovered.

Central Boiler House site, Horton Lane, Epsom Hospital Cluster

Evaluation by E Hindmarch of TVAS revealed that the site had been substantially disturbed. Two gullies/ditches and a posthole were recovered from trenches in the north-east of the site. Nothing was recovered to date the posthole, but the linear features produced 11th--12th century pottery, as well as some poorly preserved animal bone. The finds and features may indicate the presence of habitation close by.
