Interpretation
-
- Reddish clay fill of ditch F707. This material peeled off in sharp contrast to the sandstone bedrock cut edge of the ditch. Some charcoal flecks were visible throughout but otherwise it was observed as a clean and compact clay with no finds retrieved. This suggests the possibility of the gradual filling of the ditch with the superficial boulder clay geology originally dug out that could have been used as bank material.
