Abstract:		 Archaeology South-East (ASE) the contracting division of the Centre for Applied Archaeology at the Institute of Archaeology, University College London were contracted by Moorhouse Pertoleum Limited to conduct a geoarchaeological watching brief at Lidsey Road, Aldingbourne, West Sussex. Groundworks ahead of the construction of an oil well, were initiated across the 4x4m area of the cellar construction to a depth of 1.1m to the basal limit of the made ground. At this level a stepped 3x3 metre area was taken down to 2.2 metres to the water table whereupon a sheeting wall was constructed around the walls of the cellar to prevent collapse. A sequence comprising made ground, alluvium and disturbed marine deposits was recorded and sampled for palaeoenvironmental evidence. The sediments lacked microfossils but contained a pollen assemblage indicating a Mid-Late Holocene age for the deposits. The marine deposits may relate to the MIS 5e Pagham Raised Beach. The disturbed nature of the alluvial sediments and the poor degree of palaeoenvironmental preservation has led to the conclusion that further analysis of the samples would not be productive.
