Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East was commissioned by Brighton and Hove Hockey Club to undertake an archaeological evaluation on playing fields at Blatchington Mill School. The work was undertaken to inform on further mitigation to discharge a planning condition for the creation of new hockey pitches. The natural horizon(s) in all trenches were intact. No archaeological features were encountered and apart from modern finds only a single piece of prehistoric pottery was recovered. The site occupies a small area of Reading and Woolwich beds and it is possible that these less favourable soils for agricultural exploitation in comparison to the wider coastal plain geologies may account for the lack of archaeological activity. |
