Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was carried out by Archaeology South East (ASE) at Steyning Grammar School, West Sussex (NGR: TQ 178 112) in advance of proposed development works. The archaeological work was commissioned by RLF on behalf of their client West Sussex County Council (WSCC) and was carried out between 12th and 19th October 2009. Five archaeological trenches were excavated to a cumulative length of 35.5m in advance of a proposed redevelopment. Saxo-Norman/medieval features comprising ditches and pits of late 11th- to early/mid 13th- century date were revealed and investigated in four of the five excavated trenches. Evidence of modern levelling was evident in Trench 5. Unstratified finds were also recovered from the topsoil and subsoil deposits for analysis. The natural geology, comprising light yellowish grey degraded chalk, was encountered at a maximum height of 15.01m AOD in the south-western end of Trench 5, falling away to 12.68m AOD in the north-eastern end of Trench 1. All of the features were sealed by an intact layer of accumulated subsoil. With the exception of a land drain uncovered in Trench 1 no modern intrusion or truncation of the subsoil was revealed within the trial-trenches.
