Abstract/Summary

The tops of a number of timbers were visible in heavy silt, just above the water level on the edge of the quarry lake. All the tops were damaged by the machine which had uncovered them. One vertical had been completely removed, leaving a clean hole which was full of water. The exposure consisted of nine posts arranged in three lines, crossing the palaeochannel, some outliers and a small amount of debris.
