Abstract:		 A series of four, one metre square evaluation trenches were excavated in advance of the construction of a new detached house, with associated garage and driveway, adjacent to Sandbanks, South Bank, Hassocks, West Sussex. The excavations encountered no significant features with the only anomaly to the natural sand being a layer of Gault Clay in Trench C which lay directly below a small group of 19th century household artefacts. The most important artefacts recovered was an assemblage of Mesolithic worked flints which included debitage and a few implements. These were recovered from the secondary layer of fine sand from all four evaluation trenches, being more prolific in the two northern trenches. This reflects that the northern area had likely experienced less disturbance during levelling works for the former garden area of the adjacent late 19th century house, Birnam, and the adjacent quarrying activity.
