Interpretation

    • Fill of a likely burial orientated NE-SW which cuts through ditch [2311] F707. Unexcavated as of 2021. This feature, if it is a grave, looks to be on a similar alignment as grave F298 and they both may represent a different, possibly earlier, phase of the cemetery in TR2(W) due to them being aligned differently to all the other examples and cutting ditch F707 - the earliest feature in this trench.
