Surrey Archaeological Collections, Vol. 56

Excerpt from Surrey Archaeological Collections, Vol. 56: Relating to the History and Antiquities of the County My humblest apologies are due to the Society, to the Ordnance Survey, and to Mr. Birch (who quite innocently brought the mark to my notice and is thus robbed of what promised to be an interesting discovery), for so seriously misleading them. Those particularly concerned were, of course, immediately informed of the true position. Mistakes may be Of some use if valuable lessons can be learned from them, and that may well be so here. The need for constant suspicion against hidden wartime disturbances is Obvious. It is somewhat alarming to find that the Ordnance Survey, which might be expected to have access to Official information in such matters, was apparently just as ignorant as myself in this instance. Other such cases are only too likely to occur elsewhere, and I feel certain that this unfortunate affair will be a useful warning to their Archaeology Branch.
