Abstract:
An excavation was carried out in advance of decontamination at a proposed residential development site. The south gates of Roman and medieval Chichester lay c. 300m to the north-east, whilst Roman cremation and inhumation burials and an Iron Age/early Roman ditch had been recorded in the vicinity. An earlier evaluation had established that much of the proposal site had been severely disturbed. However, a series of features had been revealed within a relatively small area in the north-east corner, including a Roman ditch, medieval to post-medieval pits, gullies and ditches, and a group of possible post-holes of undetermined date. During the excavation, further archaeological features were recorded. These included Roman ditches and possible Roman pits, a Roman kiln, medieval pits and gullies, and a post-medieval ditch and limekiln. The Roman ditch proved to have represented a continuation of the ditch previously recorded to the north-east of the site. It was concluded that this had probably been constructed in the late 1st or early 2nd century, and that it probably represented a land boundary or drainage ditch. [AIP]
