Abstract:		 This report presents the results of an archaeological excavation, evaluation and watching brief carried out by Archaeology South-East (ASE) at Bognor Regis Community College between July and October 2008. All parts of the fieldwork were commissioned by Gifford on behalf of their client, West Sussex County Council. The investigations at the college have revealed extensive agricultural occupation stretching from the Mid-Bonze Age to the Post-Medieval on the fertile soils of the coastal plain. Occupation on these fertile soils is not uncommon, however, through the extensive excavations over the last ten years at the college a picture can be formulated of continual and changing occupation over the last three thousand years. Evidence for Bronze Age settlement in close relationship to the field systems may represent the initial colonisation of the Coastal Plain during this period and the start of near continual occupation up to the present day. Later features include a small amount of Iron Age features and the presence of Roman field systems, including square cut ditches, which can be directly linked to excavations to the north of this area. Later large medieval ditches add a new presence of occupation that has been previously unknown and the discovery of Post-Medieval field boundaries can be linked directly to historical mapping of the 18th century. The report details the initial analysis of the stratigraphic, finds and environmental material of the fieldwork at Bognor Regis Community College. It also includes a broad chronology of the archaeology found on site and how this information answers the initial aims of the investigation as well as revised research aims and a design for further publication.
