Ashtead

Travel Guide

Site of Roman villa, Ashtead Common. Hidden in the depths of Ashtead Common are several sites of archaeological interest. Although not easy to see it here, the spot in this photo was at one time the centre of a Roman tile making complex which included a villa (here), a bathhouse and numerous clay pits, the various earthworks and ditches of which can still be clearly seen amongst the trees. As well as Roman sites, Ashtead Common boasts prehistoric earthworks, mediaeval boundary systems and a C17th brick-lined spring.

Western gate and gatehouse, Ashtead Park One of Ashtead Park's three gatehouses.

Around Ashtead Woods Road Pasture land, now occupied primarily by horses, surrounds one of a number of large houses that were built along Ashtead Woods Road in the late C19th/early C20th. The bank of trees beyond reveals the edge of Ashtead Common. Considering the location - on the northern edge of Ashtead, less than half a mile from the M25 and the border with Greater London - the scene is remarkably rural in character.
