- Black
- Charcoal, though areas of the spread are more mottled with sandy clay orangey brown soil
- Small sub angular flecks of chalky stone
- 2020: Length- 0.38 Width- 0.30 Thickness- 0.05 2021: Length - 0.60 Width - 0.55 Depth - 0.18
- Unexcavated as of 2019 2020: two circular areas of burning now split and sectioned, then one n-s section was placed through the two sections and determined it is one spread of burnt material 2021: removed the deposit left after sectioning and sampling in 2020. Sampled the deposit in 2021. The deposit had a greater depth than recorded in 2020 but it wasn't possible to ascertain where the edges were as there were no clearly visible edges.
