Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by the Surrey County Archaeological Unit on land to the north of the Glebelands estate in Pulborough, West Sussex, during the construction of 13 houses and related groundworks and following an evaluation in August 2011. The works revealed evidence of prehistoric woodland clearance, along with late Neolithic or early Bronze Age flintwork and a middle Bronze Age bucket urn. This was followed by an initial division of land shown by a buried late Iron Age to early Roman field system, with some associated pits and postholes, perhaps indicating nearby domestic activity. The field system had related trackways or droveways, suggesting a pastoral use of the land. A later trackway or pair of drainage gullies was also revealed. |
