Full Description

{1} A substantial ditch of unknown date was also excavated and examined on the north of the site. No dating evidence was present although the upper fill contained both 20th century crockery and one sherd dating to c.1250-1300 AD.
The ditch was probably dug for drainage and seems to have become infilled very rapidly.
