Interpretation

    • Cut of ring ditch, runs parallel to ring gully [4774], steeper sided outer ring ditch feature. Excavated in several slots to investigate the feature to a greater extent. May have been an outer ring ditch boundary feature to contain perhaps livestock or make a distinctive boundary between the outside & what was placed inside the ring ditch. Cuts shallow ring gully [4821].
