Archaeological evaluation reveals early Roman settlement features in Billingshurst, suggesting historical significance.
Nine trenches were opened mechanically under archaeological supervision and potentially archaeological features investigated by hand. Seven of the nine trenches contained archaeological features although most were undated. A pit and at least one ditch represent the presence of a rural settlement of early Roman date. Some limited early post-medieval activity was also noted along with a few prehistoric struck flints.
