- Main upper fill of F217, the same as (2165). It was a fairly homogenous fill of pinkish sandstone cobbles held together with a clayey silt matrix. The fill extends throughout the feature, and is under (2167)(2084). It was probably used to backfill the circular feature and level it off before the ground was consecrated and used a cemetery.
