Abstract:		 A programme of archaeological evaluation was undertaken on the Former Highways Depot, London Road, Hassocks, West Sussex, in advance of a proposed redevelopment. The work was undertaken between the 7th and 8th of September 2011 on behalf of Matthew Homes Ltd. Eight evaluation trenches measuring between 10 and 22.5 metres in length sampled the archaeology across the site. The surface of the natural substrate varied in height from 34.53m OD in the north of the site to 36.02 OD in the south-east of the site. The evaluation trenches revealed no archaeological remains and appeared in Trenches 1 to 6 to have been truncated partially by modern development. Further investigation of the alluvial sequences revealed during the evaluation was undertaken by the excavation of two test pits. The test pits revealed alluvial deposits containing organic material and discrete seams of weathered flint. Further geoarchaeological work to characterise and sample these alluvial deposits as well as defining their extent across the site is now planned.
