The Michette et al. (2020) source states in the introduction "Reigate Stone was used as a freestone across south-east England from the eleventh until the sixteenth century", but in the section "Reigate Stone building economics" it also states "There is clear evidence that Reigate Stone was used in Roman times", providing various examples and reference to the quarry at Limpsfield Common. I'm about to add the earliest use of stone from the Upper Greensand as Roman using that reference, so it would be good if that was added to this article also for consistency.
