Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken prior to the building of a new community centre at Boxgrove on the site of a former scout hut. Much of the archaeology on the site seemed to have been removed or disturbed around the time of the construction of the original scout hut. The archaeology must have been fairly ephemeral as there was no evidence of residual materials on the site. At the west end of the site, a linear cut, interpreted as a boundary ditch, was located. No dating evidence was found, it was estimated at over 3m wide and up to 1m deep. It was uncertain if it represented a medieval monastic boundary, or a later post-medieval subdivision of the former precinct. It was hoped that the feature would be encountered again, with better dating evidence, when a second watching brief was undertaken to bring services from the main road to the new community hall.
