Abstract: |
In September 2020, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation of the Land South of Water Lane at Angmering, West Sussex. A total of 27 trenches were excavated; 13 trenches contained archaeology. The evaluation built upon the knowledge gained by the previous geophysical survey (GSB 2016) and trial trench evaluation (ASE 2016) and suggests that activity within the site ranges from the Late Mesolithic through to the modern period. An area of medieval agricultural activity dating to the 12-14th century was identified to the west of the site with a potential earlier Late Iron Age/ Early Roman ditch located roughly centre of the Area 1. To the east of the site, a series of complex enclosures date from the Late Bronze Age continuing organically into the Roman period, with additional discrete features, deposits and potential cremation, suggestive that domestic, industrial and burial activity is present on site. To the north of Area 2, a Holloway was tentatively dated to the Saxon period in the previous phase of works. |
