Three areas in the Chailey Common Local Nature Reserve are being scraped to remove the bracken and encourage the re-establishment of heather. An archaeological survey was undertaken on the first of these areas at Pound Common (Phase 1) during 2007 to monitor the groundworks and record any archaeological features revealed. The survey found a number of earthwork features, predominantly of Post-Medieval date, which comprised hollow ways, quarries, possible ridge and furrow, and some military earthworks.
