Abstract: |
An archaeological investigation was conducted between 24th February and the 4th March 2010 at the proposed site of the Sir Robert Woodard Academy, in the former playing fields south of Boundstone Community College, Upper Boundstone Lane, Lancing, West Sussex. An excavation area measuring 2,625m2 and a watching brief maintained during the excavation of a haul road encountered archaeological remains of possible Mesolithic, Neolithic, Bronze Age, Iron Age and Roman date. Some periods were only represented by limited remains or stray finds however a probable working hollow of either Early Neolithic or Late Bronze Age date was also encountered. The majority of activity at the site dated to the Late Bronze Age-Early Iron Age period with possible structured deposition of important pottery assemblages taking place. |
