Narrative

    • A post hole seen when excavating F239 (a potential beam slot) part of a row of post holes including features 241 and 242. It was 0.21m long, 0.12m wide and 0.09m deep. It could be associated with the the wall F213, or part of an earlier structure in that area. Seems to be aligned with the wall running east to west. The fill of this feature may be the burnt remains of a post left in situ.

    • This feature was fully excavated in 2021 and the remaining fill taken as a 100% sample in sample no. 193. It is now thought unlikely that this post hole and those adjacent were set within a beam slot, but they may still represent elements of a structure in the vicinity.
