Full Description

{1} Three beam slots and four postholes made up three sides of a rectangular building orientated north east - south west. Inside the building was an oval pit, probably contemporary with the use of the building. There were two postholes inside the building which may also have been contemporary. A single sherd of late Saxon pottery was recovered from the south eastern beam slot and the south western beam slot was cut by a medieval pit.
