The ditch was located in the centre of an evaluation trench and was orientated northwest-southeast. It had moderately steep, irregular sides due to the stony natural geology, gradually sloping into a fairly wide, concave base. A total of four deposits were identified within the ditch; the lower fills contained a small assemblage of animal bone identified as horse and goose, and a slump or tip, possibly due to the irregular and unstable sides of the ditch. The upper two fills and both silting, levelling fills. Sherds deriving from two Iron Age pottery vessels were recovered from the upper fills; twelve from the same rock tempered vessel recovered from one upper context, which is considered to provide secure dating for this context. The environmental sample from the same upper fill also yielded two fragments of charred grain identified as wheat, grown in the UK since the Iron Age.

To the west of the ditch was a single circular posthole. This had steep sides and a flat base, and contained two fills, however no finds were recovered from this feature.
