Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological recording was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology (CA) as part of the latest phase of works associated with the extension of the clay quarry at West Hoathly Brickworks, Sharpthorne, West Sussex. A large number of quarry pits, likely to have been the result of medieval iron ore extraction were identified within the former extent of Mare Pit Wood. Beyond and north of the wood the foundations of a building along with several pits likely to have been associated with medieval iron ore processing and smelting were also present. Post-medieval features were present within the former woodland and comprised two large clay extraction pits and several short drainage ditches. |
