Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was maintained on land at 67, Ifield Road, Crawley (NGR 526430 136665). The watching brief was maintained during the excavation of approximately. Presumed medieval industrial evidence was found consisting of iron slag spreads, a 4 metre diameter pit and two northwest - southeast orientated linear ditches, all features containing iron bloom. During an earlier evaluation (Worrall 2006) late post-medieval pottery (mid to late 19th) was obtained from the topsoil and a single fragment of blue and white transfer printed pottery was recovered during the watching brief. The linear features are suggested to be man-made drainage ditches. This is believed to be the most westerly evidence of medieval iron working deposits from Crawley High Street at present. |
