Two ditches were found within the central part of the road corridor, on an approximately E-W alignment (cuts 105/111 and cut 109). These were found to be parallel and approximately 10m apart. The northernmost ditch (105/111) had a width of 1.10m and a max depth of 0.25m. The southern ditch (109) had a width at the surface of 1.00m and a max depth of 0.25m. No artefacts were found in these ditches. (The excavators speculate on an IA field system, based on alignment with other ditches.) (1)
