A 0.08m thick, dark brownish grey silty sand sealed the drystone wall. The finds assemblage from this layer comprised five fragments of Roman ceramic building material and
54 sherds of Roman pottery, largely from jars, flagons, bowls and beakers in Black Burnished Ware, Colour coated fabric (type 1), greyware, native traditional grit-tempered wares, Dales ware and also occasional Central Gaulish Samian ware. The pottery is largely dated to the 3rd century and its condition suggests proximity to settlement. The assemblage also contained one intrusive fragment from a 19th century pantile. Bone from large sized mammals, cattle and dog,and a small proportion of oyster shells were also present. One bone displayed evidence of butchery, possibly associated with jointing of the carcass.
