Full Description

The features varied considerably in width (c.0.45m to 9.50m) but were all generally shallow in depth (c.0.1m to 0.5m). They mostly contained a single, firm, mid brownish grey naturally accumulated sandy silt fill. Of note was one deposit, a firm dark grey sandy silt representing the potential deliberate backfill of one of the ditches. No finds were recovered from any of the features.
