Abstract: |
A programme of field evaluations involving the excavation of trial trenches in designated areas within the route corridor of the published schemes for the A259 Bexhill and Hastings bypasses was undertaken. The overall evidence for archaeological activity within each evaluation area was sparse, being largely limited to scatters of artefacts recovered from the topsoil and subsoil, with few in situ features. The excavated features mostly comprised modern field drains and shallow ditches of uncertain date, the majority of which were probably post-medieval. A few ditches were revealed which were of possible Bronze Age date. [AIP] |
