Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East were commissioned by 4 Delivery Ltd., on behalf of their client, to undertake an archaeological watching brief at the Old Portsmouth Road Site, Fishbourne nr. Chichester. The site is centred on National Grid Reference NGR 483483 104822. Excavation of an approximately 40m long service trench and an area 25 m x 3m to natural deposits revealed no archaeological horizons. A 45m x 15m area was topsoil stripped, again revealing no archaeological remains. Natural, possibly truncated deposits, formed of drift alluvium and Reading Beds clay underlay modern road surfaces and services. Surface deposits consisted of mixed modern construction materials and various redeposited materials. No archaeological remains were observed except a late C19th and C20th barrel vaulted brick drain on the A259 Fishbourne Road. |
