Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East (ASE) was commissioned to undertake an archaeological evaluation by Currie and Brown UK Limited in advance of redevelopment at the University of Sussex, Falmer. The purpose of the evaluation was to determine not only the presence or absence of archaeological features and/or finds but also to assess past impacts on the landscape relating to the construction of the existing campus buildings and open spaces. The evaluation uncovered no archaeological finds or features and the results suggest that the chalk hillside has been heavily landscaped, especially in the area of Trenches 2, 3 and 6. Down-slope the site appears less disturbed with little or no truncation recorded in Trenches 4 and 5 where some head deposits and colluvium surviving intact at the valley bottom. |
