Abstract:
A section was cut across the Chichester dykes (known locally as the Devil's Ditch) at Halnaker towards the eastern end of the dyke system. The ditch was shown to be 1.6m deep, 2.0m wide at the top and 2.0m wide at the bottom. Medieval pottery was recovered from layers throughout the ditch, down to within 20cm of its floor. The implications of this finding for the dating of the dyke system as a whole are discussed.
