Abstract:
Archaeology South East was commissioned by Buro Four on behalf of the Rathfinny Estate to undertake an archaeological evaluation and watching brief at The Rathfinny Estate, Alfriston, East Sussex, in advance of the development of the site. The watching brief noted evidence of an undated field system. Excavations in and around the derelict farm buildings to the west of the site revealed that the foundations for the barn were very shallow and had been constructed using a variety of materials and techniques. It also appeared that there had once been internal divisions within the structure and that some time after construction the floor level had been raised by roughly 0.60m. Excavations in east of this range of structures uncovered the probable western wall of a now demolished dairy along with associated drainage features. Test pits along the southern yard wall revealed that the foundations of this structure were far more substantial than those noted in the nearby barn and sufficiently different in construction to suggest that the wall was a slightly later addition to the complex.
