HER 5809 - Residual Mesolithic projectile point and undated ditch

Archaeological evaluation and monitoring of excavation of geotechnical pits by OA as part of a programme of investigation in advance of proposed redevelopment of part of the interior of the Scheduled Monument. The evaluation and geotechnical pits revealed widespread truncation, an undated ditch, and a residual flint thought to be a Mesolithic projectile point.

DescriptionOxford Archaeology carried out a field evaluation at Brooklands, Weybridge, Surrey, on behalf of Daimler Chrysler UK Limited. The evaluation revealed that the present day landsurface had been made-up with dumps of redeposited natural silt, sand and debris over much of the area explored by the evaluation. This had taken place subsequent to the substantial truncation of the natural geological deposits and as a result the potential for the survival of archaeological deposits is very low across most of evaluated area. Where the geology was relatively untruncated, only one potential feature was found and one find retrieved. As the feature was undated and the find (a Mesolithic worked flint projectile point) was residual and not in situ the archaeological potential of these areas remain low.
