Full Description
{2} The main internal ditch to Enclosure 2 was sinuous, over 28m long and up to 0.78m wide x 0.60m deep. It had a wide U-shaped profile. The north-eastern end of the ditch curved to the east, but there was evidence that an earlier ditch had curved to the west.
There were large quantities of pottery, charcoal, animal bone and burnt clay in the ditch fills, particularly toward the southern end. Other finds included the block anvil and iron bar.
