Abstract

In September 2019, Oxford Archaeology undertook a 22-trench evaluation of
land at Burgess Hill in the district of Mid Sussex, on behalf of AECOM as part
of the proposed construction of the Northern Arc-Eastern Bridge and Link
Road. The evaluation revealed limited amounts of prehistoric archaeology
including pits and postholes as well as an undated field system or systems.
Pottery sherds were limited to a few medieval fragments from a colluvial
horizon while other ceramic finds dated to the post-medieval period. Many
struck flints were also recovered, indicating activity across much of Holocene
prehistory. The assemblage also included a post-medieval gunflint.
