Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East (ASE), the contracting division of the Centre for Applied Archaeology at the UCL Institute of Archaeology, undertook an archaeological watching brief on the engineering works at Pease Pottage, Crawley, West Sussex. The work was undertaken between the 11th November 2008 and the 12th March 2009 on behalf of Thames Water. The works involve the monitoring of excavation of new pipe trenches for a sewer, the stripping of areas associated with the construction of new pumping stations and the any new access routes. The natural horizon differed in height from 88.9 metres OD at the northern end of the scheme to 131.181 metres to the southern end of the scheme. In the northern area of the site a single undated linear feature were uncovered while the southern area of the site revealed two linear features. One of the linear features contained Post-Medieval material and was probably a drainage channel while the other was irregular in shape and possibly represents a natural feature. Modern field drains were uncovered in both areas. |
