The Surrey Prehistoric Group was originally founded about 25 years ago as the Surrey Lithic Tool Research Group. It comprised an informal group of the Society's members interested in prehistoric flint and stone tools. As such, the Group arranged occasional fieldwalking, the study of collections of artefacts in museums, and formed a contact point for those who had found artefacts requiring identification.

Providing the foundations for future archaeological and historical work in Surrey

The Surrey Research Framework (SRF) aims to:

identify the main gaps in our current understanding about Surrey's past

• set out topics for future research
• strengthen co-ordination of effort on research into Surrey's historic environment
