Full Description
{1} Four intercutting pits, all subcircular with steep sides and concave bases. All contained 18th-19th century pottery, and three also contained animal bone, clay pipe fragments, CBM and iron fragments. The cluster may have been quarry pits.
{2} A number of large cut features, consistent with the probable gravel extraction pits recorded by trial trenching were seen in the southern and eastern parts of the excavation area. Many contained 18th and 19th century finds. A couple of the pits could represent rubbish pits rather than quarry pits. Descriptions.
