There were flints and more than 130 pieces of pottery in the ditch.
Sadly it is now under Bronzefield Prison, modern purpose built prison for women which opened in June 2004.
With many thanks to SPARCS (the Spelthorne branch of the Young Archaeologists Club) and Spelthorne Museum.
Nearby Shortwood Common, in Middlesex, is home to one of the UK’s most important ponds. A Site of Special Scientific Interest, the pond covers a large area, nearly 1.5ha, and is bordered by the Common, which is still grazed by cattle.
