It cut two other ring ditches, F#861 and 926, and two ditches F#811 and 930. It was cut by a burial F#863 and a ditch F#414. At it's eastern terminus it was 0.30 meters wide and 0.14 meters deep, and by the northern limit of excavation at the west it was 0.65 meters wide and 0.40 meters deep. In the middle it was 0.36 meters wide and 0.13 meters deep. It contained a single fill in most of the ditch, there was a bit of slumping by the eastern terminal.
