Land at Brassey Road, Limpsfield

Evaluation by R James of ASE for Wates Built Homes of land proposed for residential development. Despite a programme of test pitting, in addition to trial trenching, very little artefactual material was recovered, the majority of which was post-medieval. A lynchet crossing the site was sectioned and found to have 18th century pottery at its base. The site is therefore likely to have been enclosed for agricultural purposes quite late.

St Mary’s Church, Farleigh

A watching brief by J Saunders of TVAS was maintained on the construction of a replacement hall and associated works. The foundation trenches for the hall were too shallow to affect any archaeological deposits. A service trench cut through the boundary bank to the south; no dating evidence for the bank’s construction was recovered and no trace of an associated ditch was seen. (319)

Oxted Limeworks

Interim report received on the survey of these limeworks by N Catford and M Tadd of SIHG and Subterranea Britannica in 1994-5. Apart from the main bank of draw kilns, a pair of rare ‘Brockham kilns’ were also recorded.
