Full Description

Along the access route to the east of the first area were three undated features. The first of those to be encountered was located c.250m to the east of the first area. Interpreted as a ditch terminus, the feature was orientated northeast to southwest with shallow concave sides and a concave base and measured 1.12m long by 0.80m wide and 0.12m deep. Continuing along the access route to the southeast was a sub-circular pit with shallow sides and a flat base and a final ditch a further 150m along the route. All three features contained a grey silty clay.
