Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was conducted in the grounds of the former Sheltered housing 'Townland', Coombe Hill, Billingshurst, West Sussex. The work was carried out between 22nd and 23rd November 2010 by Archaeology South-East on behalf of their client Lawson Queay prior to the construction of terraced houses, flats and associated parking etc. A total of 3 trenches measuring 20 metres in length were excavated to assess the archaeological potential of the site in order to fulfil the planning condition. The site lies on the Weald Clay Formation, indicated on British Geological Survey Sheet 301, and lies adjacent to the High Street which is the probable centre line of the alignment of the Stane Street Roman road connecting London and Chichester. The evaluation trenches encountered the natural geology at a height of 31.90 mAOD in the north of the site and 31.01 mAOD in the south of the site. A number of archaeological features were identified including a curved alignment of postholes, a beam-slot, a shallow linear cut and a group of stake-holes; no overall interpretation of these features has been possible and dating evidence suggests a post-medieval date at the earliest.
