Abstract:		 A watching brief was carried out on the route of a new 132Kv cable trench running between Steyning Grid and the Southern Cross to Worthing Overhead Line. The cable followed the route of a disused railway track running along the A283 and through fields previously used for medieval salt reclamation in the River Adur valley. The salt mounds had previously been removed, but an archaeological watching brief carried out in 1996 by South Eastern Archeaology Services for an adjacent cable excavation had recorded evidence of hearths associated with salt production below the ground surface. As work progressed it became clear that some sections of the new cable trench were excavated within the easement of the previous excavation. Despite this, four pieces of prehistoric worked flint and a piece of Roman building material were recovered from topsoil close to the junction with the Steyning Bypass A piece of heat-treated clay , and a thin spread of ashy silt, which may be associated with the Medieval salt production industry were recorded close to where in-situ hearths had been recorded in 1996.
