Abstract:
Archaeology South-East were commissioned Rural Arisings to carry out an archaeological watching brief on land at Holmstead Farm, Cuckfield, West Sussex (TQ 28231 26403) during the construction of improvements to the surface water and slurry management arrangements for the farm. The work was undertaken in two parts between 27th April 2010 and 28th April 2010 and between 17th October 2011 and 19th October 2011. According to the British Geological Survey 1:50,000 series map for the area (Sheet 302: Horsham) the site lies on the following geological formations: Ardingly Sandstone, Upper Tunbrige Wells Sand, Horsham Stone and Cuckfield Stone; orangey brown sand with occasional sandstone fragments was identified on the high ground in the north of the site and the observed natural on remaining land was head deposits of mid orangey brown sandy clay with occasional sandstone fragments. The head deposits were generally covered in 0.20 to 0.40m of colluvium, dark orangey brown clayey sand with sandstone fragments. The site was sealed by mid-greyish brown sandy silt topsoil. No archaeological artefacts or features were identified during the monitoring of these works which involved the stripping of deposits down to natural across the site.
