Full Description
{1} Trench 1 exposed the corner of a possible shallow ditch which ran north east to south west and possibly turned to the south east. It was 0.6m wide and 0.15m deep and had a roughly flat base whilst the sides were steep and quite clearly defined. The fill of the ditch contained a single sherd of 1st century AD pottery and two small fragments of animal bone. Two other features were seen which could be pits, or natural hollows.
