Bournemouth University has, since 1993, conducted a programme of research
and fieldwork reassessing the Neolithic and Bronze Age of the Sussex chalklands.
Part of this programme involves the carrying out of a number of small,
problem orientated ground investigation projects. The purpose of this web
page is to introduce the first of the field research projects at Belle
Tout in East Sussex, and to provide a brief summary of the results obtained
so far. The statements and conclusions presented here should not therefore
be considered as definitive and the graphics displayed are intended purely
to provide an impression of the immediate discoveries. Full assimilation
of data and presentation of results will occur on completion of the final
specialist results.
