Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Archaeology South-East at Clay Hill, Ringmer, East Sussex. The work was commissioned by Jacobs on behalf of South East Water. Forty-five trenches were excavated, each 30m long, totalling some 1350 metres of trenching across seven fields. The earliest identifiable activity on the site proved to be of Late Iron Age date and comprised a shallow ditch (trench 43, field D3) possibly the east side of an enclosure, initially identified by the geophysical survey, aligned north-east to south-west measuring approximately 50m by 25m. The eastern ditch of the possible enclosure was also identified in Trenches 40 and 42. A single sherd of Late Iron Age pottery was also recovered from pit [33/003] in field D1. The other trenches in field D1 (trenches 31 to 39) identified a series of undated features including several large linear features. Roman activity was concentrated in fields R4, R46 and R47 on the north side of Clay Hill stream valley. Few datable cut features were identified but an apparent demolition horizon of CBM in Trench 21 strongly suggests the location of a Roman building or tile kiln in the immediate vicinity, probably on the level terrace at the top of the Clay Hill stream valley. A number of small pits and postholes, dating from the late 12th to the 13th century, were identified in Trenches 2 and 4 in field R32 immediately north of Clay Hill Mount.
