The Romano-British farmstead located 480 metres north west of Devil's Dyke Cottages is a rural settlement site dating to the Roman period in Britain. The site represents the archaeological remains of a small agricultural community that formed part of the dispersed pattern of Romano-British farming settlements characteristic of the Sussex Weald during the first to fourth centuries AD. The farmstead would have served a subsistence and local surplus-producing function within the broader economic landscape of Roman Britain, likely engaged in cereal cultivation and pastoral husbandry. Such settlements provide evidence for the continuity and development of rural settlement patterns during the Roman occupation and the integration of indigenous British populations into Romano-British economic systems.
