Interpretation
-
- Cut of bell-shaped pit with 3 fills (6264), (6265), (6266). Flat based pit, very similar to the other Iron Age dumping pits on site, however considerably more undercut than most of them. Could be due to fluvial build up collecting in the pit and wearing down the sides rather then intentionally dig this way.
