Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East was commissioned to undertake an archaeological evaluation on land at Graylingwell Hospital Phase 5, Chichester, West Sussex. A total of 3 evaluation trenches were excavated. The trenches were numbered 50, 51 and 52 so that they would run sequentially on from trenches excavated during earlier phases of work at the site. This phase of work was focussed within the grounds of the hospitals' Medical Superintendent's House. Extensive late post-medieval landscaping was evident across the site area. The east edge of the middle of three terraces appeared to have been cut into the natural slope whilst the west edge had been built up with made-ground creating a level platform. A possible subsoil horizon was evident in Trench 52 but had been truncated in Trenches 50 and all but the very east end of Trench 51. Modern disturbance was encountered in the form of a circular pit in Trench 50 and a large linear cut in Trench 51. Extensive root disturbance was evident in Trench 52. No archaeological features were identified within this phase of works. |
