Archaeology

Littlehampton Museum is the repository for professional archaeological digs for a wide area surrounding Littlehampton including Angmering, Barnham, Climping, Eastergate, Felpham, Ford, Littlehampton, Lyminster, Crossbush, Middleton-on-sea, Poling, Walberton and Yapton. This wide array of finds covers the history of the area from prehistory to the present day, with the largest proportion of the collection relating to Roman or Iron Age material. The vast majority of our collection remains uncatalogued and is a big part of our current documentation project.
