Survey of housing development by D W Williams: a scatter of crudely worked flint and three small prehistoric sherds were found, and a concentration of 13th century pottery was noted in the north-west corner of the site. Metal detector users recovered a medieval jetton and a decorated lead weight.

Report by D W Williams of a small quantity of late 12th/early 13th century pottery including shell-tempered wares collected by Mr Martin from an allotment. There is also later medieval and Tudor material more widely spread across the allotments. The finds may be related to the site of Linkfield Manor which should be in the vicinity. (254)

Observation by D W Williams of the refurbishment and extension of the 18th century building; two substantial stone walls at right angles were noted. Substantial probably medieval moulded stone fragments suggest they may have been part of the priory, perhaps a guest house. An arch voussoir fragment was found which may have come from the 18th century demolition of the Tudor priory.

Excavation by D W Williams for Reigate and Banstead Archaeological Co-ordination Committee located a 12th/13th century cesspit with the handle of a curfew, a later cesspit with a timber base in situ and a large late medieval pit with timber and post revetment, re-lined with stone and timber in the late 16th century, purpose unknown.

Small-scale excavation by G N Hayman for SCAU and Reigate & Banstead Borough Council to test the outer bank of the wet moat on the north side of the Castle to provide management information. The existing bank was shown to be post-medieval but it encapsulated a counterscarp bank probably of 13th century date.

Report by D W Williams of the discovery on a development site of a large late medieval coin hoard by R Mintey using a metal detector. There were 6701 coins, of which 125 were of gold including two half nobles of previously unrecorded issues. The coins mostly date to the reign of Henry VI. Two jugs were also recovered, and they have been restored and recorded. One is a Tudor green type and the other an unglazed pink vessel. A link with the rebellion of Jack Cade in 1450 was at first considered but further study indicated that the latest coins were two pennies of Henry VI issued in 1454-60.

Small-scale excavation by D W Williams (following topsoil stripping of area just south-east of the Priory for construction of a children's play area) revealed evidence for a probable path founded on a great deal of building rubble perhaps taken from the Tudor mansion during alterations. The path is provisionally dated to the 17th or 18th century. (253; see also note in SyAC 81, 171))

Observation by D W Williams of the demolition of the reservoir on the hill. Nothing of archaeological interest was noted.

Observation by A O Brown of extension building and internal alterations. Several 19th century tombs were noted including two in a previously unrecorded brick arched vault. Two coffins, both apparently of wood, were exposed in the south aisle. One of them was removed. Both lay in a deposit of blue puddled clay and on an unusual north-south axis. (261)
