Short Description:
Band of orange clay beneath graveyard soil (2134) in slot to the SE of the limekiln

Interpretation

    • Band of orangey clay likely the same as (2168). This layer of clay appears to cap a more mixed/mottled layer of clay with patches of charcoal/burnt waste below. This may suggest a possible continuation of the dumping of burning and waste metallurgical debris that may be associated with the 'metalworking' area just to the east.
