Abstract:
Archaeology South-East was commissioned by Southern Water to undertake an archaeological watching brief during pipeline excavations west of Cecil Pashley Way, Shoreham Airport. The work took place between the 9th of August and the 12th of September 2017 and this report details the results. The work was commissioned by Southern Water. The watching brief at Shoreham Airport noted the alluvial geology at around 1.57m AOD. It successfully recorded archaeological features which appeared to relate to post medieval agriculture and WW II military activity at the site. An in- filled ditch was noted which contained 20th century ceramic mugs. This feature may date from the earliest phase of airfield construction although the pottery recovered was still in production during WW II. A lead coated wire and a Bakelite junction box were recorded hinting that WW II structures at the site were connected by telephone although these features may be civilian in origin.
