Narrative

    • North to south aligned beam slot with vertical sides and flat base. Feature appears in plan to cut neonatal grave F406; however the action of originally cutting this would have disturbed the buried human remains. Therefore it seems more likely that this feature actually represents the removal/robbing of the wall that the neonatal burial had been made up against.
