Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned to undertake an archaeological evaluation of a c. 7ha parcel of land forming part of Rustington Golf Course, Golfers Lane, Angmering, West Sussex, BN16 4NB, centred on NGR 505492, 103441. Twenty-eight trial trenches, most measuring 40m in length and 1.8m wide, were excavated. Some of the trenches were shortened or relocated due to on site obstacles. Two of the 28 excavated trial trenches contained archaeological features and deposits, demonstrating archaeological remains are present across the site. The uncovered features were a ditch and two pits. Pottery and flint were collected from across the site and date from the Middle to Late Bronze Age and Late Neolithic to Bronze Age, respectively. The remaining 26 trenches were blank or had modern features and services relating to the golf course present within them. The lack of discrete features and small quantity of finds recovered during the course of the evaluation could suggest that the area was used for agriculture during prehistory, or the building of the A259 directly to the south of the site and the golf course during the 1990s itself has truncated the archaeology. |
