Sweeters Copse, Alfold
Site watching by D G Bird for SCC, of Conoco site topsoil removal. Nothing of interest noted apart from one probably Mesolithic flint core, a few burnt flints and two pieces of iron slag.
Holmen's Grove, Brook
Site watching by D G Bird for SCC and by Haslemere Group of SyAS of topsoil removal by Conoco. No finds noted but many areas of disturbance were thought to be probably iron ore pits associated with a nearby furnace.
Witley Farm
About 200 worked flints, probably mostly Mesolithic, were donated with fieldwork notes to Haslemere Group of SyAS by .1 Cresswell. The finds were made over the period 1968-71 by Cresswell, S Penney and A Penney. (200)-
The Green, Hale
Discovery in garden soil disturbed by house building of a 3rd/4th century Alice Holt rim sherd; reported by K D Graham. (206)
Kingham site, Farnham
Trial trenching by K D Graham for FDMS recorded unstratified RB pottery, much medieval pottery and a pre-1600 clay pit. (See report in this volume on Kingham's/Lion & Lamb sites)
Borelli Yard, Farnham
Excavation by N Riall for Waverley Borough Council, MSC and Arundel' House Securities Ltd in advance of redevelopment. A trench on the floodplain terrace produced evidence consistent with use for agriculture in the 12th and 13th centuries. Another nearer the street frontage produced a sequence of features from the 12th century or earlier to the mid 20th century. The main features were a section of the town ditch and a double flued updraught tile kiln. The ditch lay about 45m south of and parallel to the main east–west street, the Borough.
Lloyds Bank, Farnham
Site tested by M Reid for Waverley Borough Council and MSC without result.
The Hart, Farnham
Trial excavation by K D Graham for FDMS in advance of redevelopment. Pottery from the 13th century onwards was found, but no features; it was probably therefore domestic rubbish. One fragment of RB pottery, possibly RB tile and several flint flakes were also found. (See report in this volume on Kingham's/Lion & Lamb sites.)
Dry Hill Camp, Lingfield
The NE corner of the hill fort was walked after ploughing by D G Bird for SCC. Only a few fragments of probably modern tile, four probably unworked lumps of flint and a small piece of iron slag were noted. The SE corner was later walked, again with very few finds including a few flints with one fine scraper. (209)
Moorhouse Sandpit, Limpsfieid
Geophysical survey by R J Poulton for SCC and Titsey Estate of future extension to the sandpit produced negative results. The line of the parish boundary, now unmarked, was sectioned and found to be followed by a small undated ditch. (208)
