Abstract:
In December 2018, Wessex Archaeology carried out a targeted archaeological excavation on land to the south of Burndell Road, Yapton, West Sussex, centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) 498501 102797. The work was commissioned by Crayfern Homes Limited in response to a condition attached to the outline planning consent (Arun District Council (ADC) application reference F/16/18/OUT) for the construction of 45 residential dwellings and associated access on the site. The excavation was preceded by an archaeological evaluation in November 2016 (wessexar1-272053), which had identified a single archaeological feature in one of the 18 trial trenches. The feature was only partially excavated, and the initial interpretation was uncertain. However, the abundance of cultural material, particularly pottery and worked flint, retrieved from indicated a deliberate deposition during the Early Neolithic. The Archaeological Advisor to ADC recommended that a targeted archaeological excavation of the area around the Neolithic feature would be an appropriate form of mitigation. Initially this was to be a single area measuring 20m x 20m (400 m²), centred on the Neolithic feature but in the event, the footprint was reduced slightly because no associated archaeological remains were present. The previously un-investigated remainder of the Neolithic feature was, fully excavated and recorded. The excavation revealed that the Neolithic feature, which had tentatively been interpreted as two intercutting pits during the 2016 evaluation, was actually a single feature, albeit with a somewhat unusual, crescentic shape in plan, and an irregular profile, which was steeply sloped or undercut on the inner side.
