| Abstract: |
An evaluation of six machine excavated trenches was commissioned by West Sussex County Council. All but one trench contained no archaeological features in the natural Brickearth. Trench 2 revealed two slight post holes, both of which were cut by a large, originally vertical sided pit. The pit was not bottomed due to its unstable nature, however it was in excess of 1m deep. The fill produced a little pottery and worked flint suggestive of a probable Bronze Age date. Other finds of pottery in the topsoil of various trenches suggested the area had been manured during the Romano-British and medieval periods. [Au] |
