No features or deposits of archaeological interest were observed during groundworks, and no artefactual material was recovered. 2 © Cotswold Archaeology Laleham Golf Club, Laleham Reach, Chertsey, Surrey: Archaeological Watching Brief 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 In April 2014 Cotswold Archaeology (CA) carried out an archaeological watching brief for Thorney Park Golf Club Ltd at Laleham Golf Club, Laleham Reach, Chertsey, Surrey (centred on NGR: TQ 04752 68479; Fig. 1). The watching brief was undertaken to fulfil a condition attached to a planning consent for the construction of four ponds (retrospective) and installation of underground bypass pipework, as granted by Runnymede Borough Council, conditional on a programme of archaeological work (Planning ref: RU.10-0750, Condition 2). The objective of the watching brief was to record all archaeological remains exposed during the development. 1.2 The watching brief was carried out in accordance with a brief prepared by the Surrey County Council Archaeological Officer (SCCAO), archaeological advisor to Runnymede Borough Council (RBC), and with a subsequent detailed Written Scheme of Investigation (WSI) produced by CA (2014) and approved by SCCAO on behalf of RBC. The fieldwork also followed the Standard and Guidance for an archaeological watching brief (IfA 2009), the Management of Archaeological Projects 2 (English Heritage 1991), the Management of Research Projects in the Historic Environment (MORPHE): Project Manager’s Guide (EH 2006). The site 1.3 The golf course comprises a c. 40 hectare sub-rectangular parcel of land situated on the western floodplain of the River Thames, approximately 1km to the north of Chertsey, and a few hundred metres west of the village of Laleham, which lies on the opposing river bank. The golf course is bordered to the east by a historic right of way known as Ferry Way, to the north-east by the River Thames and to the north by Penton Park Estate. The western and southern site boundaries comprise the historic watercourse and boundary known as the Burway Ditch, beyond which lie Laleham Reach static caravan park and a number of gravel extraction reservoirs 1.4 The land within the golf course is low-lying, flat and poorly drained, consistent with its location on the floodplain of the River Thames. It lies at an elevation of 10-15m above Ordnance Datum. The underlying geology of the golf course is mapped as alluvium overlying river terrace (BGS 2014). 3 © Cotswold Archaeology Laleham Golf Club, Laleham Reach, Chertsey, Surrey: Archaeological Watching Brief Archaeological background 1.5 A Heritage Statement (WA 2011) was prepared in support of the development, setting out the archaeological and historical background to the site, which is summarised below. 1.6 There is evidence for prehistoric settlement roughly 600m north-east of the golf course, notably a multi-period prehistoric settlement site at Home Farm, Laleham, on the opposite bank of the river. In addition, a possible Bronze Age settlement was identified immediately beyond the A320 to the west of the golf course. There have also been chance finds recorded in the vicinity of the golf course including a pair of Bronze Age urns containing sword and dagger fragments c. 200m to the east of the site and a Late Bronze Age sword recovered from an area of gravel extraction just beyond the southern limit of the site. It is likely that the River Thames and its associated watercourses were the focus for activities such as the votive deposition of metalwork throughout the prehistoric period. This is evidenced by the recovery of a very fine example of an Iron Age La Tene type bronze shield from the gravel quarry immediately beyond the south-west limit of the golf course, and is also likely to account for the Late Bronze Age sword mentioned above. 1.7 The nearby settlements at Chertsey and at Laleham were established by the Saxon period and Chertsey Abbey was founded on land to the south of the golf course in 666AD. An earthwork enclosure (SM SU69) may be part of a process of floodplain and drainage management that evolved in the medieval period alongside the development of Chertsey Abbey. However, no archaeological investigations of the enclosure have been undertaken but it is thought to be a stock enclosure of medieval date. To the north of the earthwork enclosure is the Laleham Burway Ditch, which is an ancient watercourse and also an important historic boundary feature. The Burway Ditch runs for some 3km, taking a circular course across the western floodplain of the River Thames. The Burway Ditch joins the larger Abbey River for 350m before diverging and taking a course north-west to south•east, crossing Ferry Lane and continuing until it rejoins the Abbey River at its convergence with the River Thames. The meandering course of the Burway Ditch suggests that is was originally a natural watercourse, which was artificially augmented and subsequently maintained as part of the water management system of the floodplain. 4 © Cotswold Archaeology Laleham Golf Club, Laleham Reach, Chertsey, Surrey: Archaeological Watching Brief Archaeological objectives 1.8 The objectives of the archaeological works were: To monitor groundworks for the installation of the pipework and to identify, investigate and record all significant buried archaeological deposits revealed on the site during the course of the development groundworks; To identify any archaeological remains that may be associated with the Scheduled Monument (SM SU69 earthworks) and Burway Ditch, which may have aided in their further interpretation and dating; To identify whether there was any further evidence for the placement of votive offerings dating to the prehistoric period, given previous findspots within the vicinity of the site and the groundworks location near to a watercourse (the Burway Ditch); At the conclusion of the project, to produce an integrated archive for the project work and a report setting out the results of the project and the archaeological conclusions that can be drawn from the recorded data. Methodology 1.9 The fieldwork followed the methodology set out within the WSI (CA 2014). An archaeologist was present

Currently it fails to meet Water Framework Directive objects of clean water. Due to the many pressures of urbanisation and the loss of natural environment, sections of the Thames channel and its tributaries vary in status, quality and the challenges facing them. Key issues in the catchment include pollution from phosphates that are reducing the diversity of aquatic species and the impact of weirs and other obstructions to fish migration. The catchment based approach, gives us the opportunity to take responsibility locally, answer questions towards issues, and fix problems in the catchment.

  • Statement of Common Ground with Spelthorne Borough Council
    Statement of Common Ground with Spelthorne Borough Council Part 1: Strategic context Geographical area covered by Statement of Common Ground (SoCG) and justification for why this geography is appropriate: This SoCG covers the local authority areas of Runnymede Borough Council and Spelthorne Borough Council as shown in the map extract at Annex 1. This geographical area has been chosen as the Runnymede-Spelthorne SHMA (November 2015) determined that these two local authorities for a Housing Market Area (HMA) and HMA geography is considered to be the most appropriate starting point to produce a SoCG. It is also relevant that the evidence collated by both Local Authorities supports that Runnymede and Spelthorne have the strongest functional links from an economic perspective with each other as well as strong retail links. Wider relationships with Runnymede and Spelthorne: The 2015 SHMA concluded that the Runnymede-Spelthorne HMA has notable links with overlapping local housing markets which reflects the density of transport networks, both road and rail. Links were concluded to be particularly strong with Elmbridge, Hounslow and Woking. There are also notable links between the Runnymede- Spelthorne HMA and London due to outward migration pressures and strong commuting patterns. There are also recognised links between both Local Authorities and Heathrow Airport. Indeed, both Local Authorities are considered to sit in a sub regional Heathrow Functional Economic Area. The Spelthorne FEA analysis (March 2017) concludes that Spelthome holds its strongest economic links with Runnymede, followed by Elmbridge and the London Borough of Hounslow. Woking and the London Borough of Richmond-upon-Thames are found to influence the FEA to a much lesser extent.
