Narrative

    • Cutting into a mid yellow-brown silty clay dump layer (10020) was a series of three postholes (F1002, F1003 & F1004), all showing strong similarities to one another; the three posthole features were wide and shallow, with a central fill surrounded by a packing layer of yellow/brown or yellow clay (10010, 10015 & 10018). The fills of these posthole features (10008, 10010, 10014, 10015, 10017 &10018) all produced low quantities of finds. It is probable that these three posthole features are related to one another, particularly given that they lie in a linear orientation running roughly NWW-SEE.
