Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East was commissioned by CgMs Consulting to undertake an archaeological evaluation in advance of the redevelopment of 2 fields on land south of Marringdean Acres, Billingshurst, West Sussex. The archaeological integrity of the site is predominantly good in the southern field with the possibility of plough damage, or colluvial action, in the northern field. A total of 25 trenches were excavated, 3 of which revealed archaeological features comprising 2 shallow ditches in the southern field. Although these features are undated by finds, they may broadly correlate with post-medieval boundary or drainage ditches shown on the 1841 Billingshurst Tithe Map and are therefore considered to be most likely of a post-medieval date and not archaeologically significant. |
