Abstract:
Archaeology South-East (ASE) was commissioned by The National Trust to undertake an archaeological watching brief during development of land at Cissbury Ring Hillfort, Worthing, West Sussex (NGR TQ 13953 07947). Ground-works undertaken on land to the south of the monument produced evidence for two features: an undated NNE-SSW ditch situated at the base of the slope on the coll south of the monument, possibly related to a concrete (WWI?) machine base, or earlier in date; and evidence of either an undated large pit or major ditch/trench terminal situated slightly northwards of the ditch. This latter feature may be related to tank trap believed to have been dug in this vicinity. Natural chalk was encountered at c.120m at the base of the slope and c. 150m at the top of the slope. No finds or environmental evidence were generated.
