Short Description:
Fill of grave containing SK2534 in ditch
Issued to
Ben Swain | 17/09/2023

Interpretation

    • Fill of a grave cut into ditch F707. The similarity of the fill to the surrounding soil matrix makes the cut difficult to see, however the presence of an intact skeleton suggests that this burial is truncating ditch F707 in keeping with all the other skeletons previously discovered truncating the ditch
