Excavation of a Mesolithic occupation site and a Saxon building to the rear of Upper Bognor Road, Bognor Regis, West Sussex , by Greg Priestley-Bell, published 2006 in Sussex Archæological Collections (vol. 144, article, pp.51-67) accessible at: W.S.R.O.

A small-scale excavation was undertaken in November 2001, following evaluation of the site in July of the same year. Mesolithic features and flintwork were identified, including evidence for a possible structure. Neolithic/Bronze Age and Roman activity was also represented within the finds assemblages and a single Roman feature identified. A Saxon building associated with late sixth- to early/mid seventh-century pottery provides important evidence for the Early-Mid Saxon period.

The excavation of prehistoric remains, a Roman road and post-medieval kiln at Stane Street, Westhampnett, West Sussex, by Greg Priestley-Bell, published 2010 in Sussex Archæological Collections (vol. 148, article, pp.47-70) accessible at: W.S.R.O.

Evaluation and excavation on the line of Stane Street at Westhampnett, near Chichester, West Sussex revealed significant remains relating to the Roman road, including part of the agger, a flanking ditch, both zonal ditches and the rutted surface of a metalled 'carriageway'. Roman Stane Street at this location was c. 25 m wide in total, with c. 7 m between zonal ditch and flanking ditch (all measurements taken from the centres of the ditches). While the flanking ditch produced mid first-century AD pottery, a small quantity of Early Saxon pottery, together with fourth-century Roman pottery, was recovered from the surface of the rutted southern 'carriageway'. A brick kiln of probable mid sixteenth- to seventeenth-century date was revealed during the evaluation and preserved in situ. A small number of prehistoric features were also identified, including four possible Bronze Age pits, a Middle Iron Age ditch and a Late Iron Age/Early Roman pit.
