00:00 Hi, I'm Mark Dunford and I'm here with today's Sussex World Daily Bulletin on Thursday March

00:05 28th. The remains of a Roman settlement have been uncovered in West Sussex. The discovery

00:10 comes amid an archaeological dig to support the planning process for the Tangmere Strategic

00:15 Development location. Countryside Properties UK Ltd is working with Chichester District

00:20 Council and Tangmere Parish Council on the development of 1,300 homes and community facilities

00:25 at Tangmere Village. A spokesperson for the developer said "The technical evaluations

00:30 have identified areas of archaeological interest on the site, which includes the remains of

00:35 a Roman settlement." As a result of this, the University College of London's Archaeology

00:41 South East team will be undertaking archaeological excavations across 14 hectares of the site

00:47 over the course of the next three years. The latest on the future of St Leonard's Seafront

00:53 venue has been revealed this week. Marina Pavilion was the home to Azure, which closed

00:58 earlier this year. Azure opened in 2008 and was a popular venue for wedding celebrations,

01:02 birthday parties and anniversaries. It stopped operating on January 29th this year. Over

01:08 the previous year it closed, a question mark hung over the venue's future due to a long

01:12 running dispute between the company which managed it, Azure Events Ltd, and the lease

01:17 hold owner, Seachain Sussex. Marina Pavilion has now been made available by Seachain Sussex

01:22 which said it has appointed leisure sector property agents, Fleurettes and commercial

01:27 estate agents, Dyer and Hobbis, to help market the site to prospective leaseholders.
