Abstract:		 Archaeology South-East was commissioned by RPS Planning and Development on behalf of Location 3 Properties to undertake an archaeological evaluation and small scale excavation, on land at Jane Murray Way, Burgess Hill, West Sussex in advance of the redevelopment of the site. Fourteen trenches, totalling some 546 of trenching, were excavated across the site to reveal the underlying natural Weald Clay between 34.18m OD in the west of the site and 32.11m OD to the east. Several features of Late Iron Age or Roman date were recorded in the far west of the site, including two ditches on a northeast-southwest orientation and the heavily truncated traces of at least two phases of a possible eaves-drip gully for a Late Iron Age or Romano-British round-house. Two small pits and two pits or possible post-hole bases were identified within the extrapolated arc of the curvilinear gullies. Finds recovered include an assemblage of relatively unabraded Late Iron Age/Early roman pottery and fragments of a loom weight. Elsewhere on the site, features recorded include a possible ditch (undated) to the north of the site and a series of modern ditches and a modern tree throw in the southeast of the site. Overburden on the site generally consisted of a sequence of subsoil and topsoil measuring up to 0.55m deep, though in the southeast corner of the site a layer of recent made ground was also noted.
