More information : [TQ 0107 5219] Romano-British Pottery etc. found A.D. 1897 [T.I.] (1) R.B. burials accompanied by pottery were found at Burpham c.1897. The pottery is chiefly in private hands but some is in Guildford Museum, including a small 2nd C. Samian bowl (Acc. No. 267) and a small bowl (for pins and ornaments) (No. Acc. No.) which are on display. A complete E1A greensand rotary quern (Sussex type) also on display (Acc. No. AS131) was found in 1898 at Burpham but Miss Dance could not confirm if it came from the same site as the pottery. The siting given by Authority 1 falls within an area of sand and clay workings on the edge of the River Wey terrace; they are now disused and under pasture. Local enquiries failed to produce evidence of more recent finds. (2)
