Abstract:
Surface collection and excavation within a field at the Brinsbury campus of Chichester College, north of Pulborough, recovered flintwork relating to prehistoric activity predominantly of two periods: mesolithic and the chalcolithic/Early Bronze Age. The latter finds, which incorporate a large number of barbed and tanged arrowheads and several broken flint daggers, are of special interest, being found within a small area that hints at unusual activity. Excavation provided evidence of few features, merely several burnt areas and some stake-holes, and it is considered that the land surface may have been truncated by cultivation-enhanced erosion. A small amount of Romano-British material may attest to roadside settlement nearby.
