Abstract:		 Steyning was a burh by 1024-30 according to the evidence of the Saxon coin mint. Archaeologically, no evidence of the11lth-century town had been found by 1967 when an opportunity occurred to mount a rescue excavation in a shallow valley running south from the imposing Norman church. The excavations, although yielding some 10th-century material including a coin of Edgar, were predominantly of 12th-century material lying on the upper slope of the valley. The lack of conclusive evidence of early house plans suggested the site was on the fringe of the town, in the backyards of plots whose ditched boundaries may have dated back to an earlier field system. In the discussion of the site, ideas are put forward about the location of the early town and of the port .
