The White Hart inn, 150 High Street, Old Woking

TQ 019 569 The White Hart inn, 150 High Street, Old Woking Watching brief by K Bower of PCA following evaluation in 2014 (SyAC 99, 238), confirmed the continuation of a medieval soil horizon across the site, which contained pottery predominantly dated to 1350–1500. Post-medieval activity was also recorded; a small number of medieval peg tile fragments in the demolition layer to the north of the site may indicate the demolition of a medieval building in the vicinity, and truncated intercutting ditches may represent evidence for an early post-medieval field or property boundary. Other evidence of post-medieval activities included occasional cess- or rubbish pits. Finds, including sherds of drinking vessels, glass and a range of clay tobacco pipe may suggest the presence of a drinking establishment on the site prior to the White Hart inn.
