Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East was commissioned by Berkeley Homes (Southern) Ltd. to undertake an archaeological evaluation on land forming the southern part of the Highwood development, Broadbridge Heath, West Sussex (centred at NGR 515366 129775). One hundred and forty-six trial trenches were mechanically excavated at the site, most measuring 30m by 1.8m, providing a c.5% sample of the evaluated area. In addition a small open area stripped to investigate a post-medieval agricultural building. Archaeological features were identified, excavated and recorded in eleven of the trenches, but only one could be positively dated (to the late post-medieval period). Phases of use of the post-medieval agricultural building were recorded. Finds recovered from the overburden of the trenches included limited assemblages of flintwork and medieval and post-medieval pottery. |
