    • Sixty-three pot sherds where found within the ditch, from the upper layers (1005), (1013) and (1014), they date the ditch 3rd/4th century AD. Two handmade sherds may have been incorporated into the enclosure ditch fill due to it truncating F109, or due to residue Iron Age material remaining on the surface.
