Excerpt from Surrey Archaeological Collections, Vol. 55: Relating to the History and Antiquities of the County

In the face of such a clear trace as we now have, there seems little difficulty in abandoning this negative or doubtful evidence. The traces of stone noted in Dorking itself might easily be due to other causes, possibly to be associated with the mansia, if one did exist there. The southward angle at the Lime Works would soon bring the new route back into Dorking via Station Road and a little to the east of Vincent Lane, perhaps still marked by an old footpath between this and Mount Street, and then by property boundaries to the bus station in South Street where the accepted route would be rejoined.
