Woodholm and Welham Farms, Hailsham, East Sussex, (Phase II)

In February 2010 Oxford Archaeology carried out Phase II of an Archaeological Evaluation at Woodholm and Welham Farms, Hailsham, East Sussex (NGR TQ 577 107) for CgMs on behalf of Taylor Wimpy PLC. Phase I, which was located to the north of the Phase II area, was completed in November 200 and has been subject to an earlier report (OA, 2008).
The Phase II Evaluation revealed Medieval and possible Late Iron Age or Romano-British linears that probably represent boundaries to field systems. These were located on the most elevated ground in the central and eastern part
of the site. Small quantities of un-stratified or residual struck flints were also recovered from
this phase of evaluation attesting to activity in earlier Prehistory.
