Abstract:		 This archaeological field survey report relates to a proposed water pipeline. The Proposed Route is between Poverty Bottom Water Treatment Works and Firle Reservoir, East Sussex. A Route Option was also surveyed to the south of Gardener's Hill. The survey aimed to provide dating evidence for a field system seen on aerial photographs, as well as to identify any previously unknown sites. Field walking covered 1.6km of the Proposed Route and 745m of a Route Option designed to avoid a badger set. A total of 74 finds, weighing 3432g, were recovered including ceramic building material, post-medieval pottery, a sherd of unidentified pottery, six iron objects, two copper-alloy cartridge cases, glass, heataffected flints and two pieces of ironstone. The field walking survey produced no additional sites to those already identified in the desk-based assessment (Archaeology South-East 2007). Dating evidence for the field system was not found, though a single sherd of Roman or medieval pottery was recovered from the same plot. From the twenty-one sites identified in the desk-based assessment, the Proposed Route directly impacted upon one regionally important site (an Iron Age or Roman field system at Gardener's Hill), and seven locally important sites. The Route Option directly impacted upon one regionally important site (an Iron Age or Roman field system at Gardener's Hill).
