Short Description:
Cut of linear enclosure ditch running N-S through centre of trench 11 (northern slot) - not fully excavated
Issued to
Doug Hopper | 30/08/2022

Interpretation

    • Cut of a roman linear enclosure ditch. This was not fully excavated in the slot against the LOE, however through comparison with the slot near the southern LOE, this cut likely represents the recut of the ditch. This recut is through clay alluvial layer (11045) which caps postholes [11041] and [11043], meaning the ditch must be later than the post holes
