- One test pit (Test Pit 20) was opened in the back garden of No.2 Camp Cottages, in the northern part of the central area of the monument (Figure 11). Clay natural was found in the base of the test pit and was overlain by a 0.4m thick layer of subsoil.

- This was sealed by more recent garden soil layers that produced a mixed finds assemblage dating to between the medieval period and the present day. The presence of the earlier pottery (Ham Green Ware, Bristol Redcliffe Ware) may suggest that the subsoil is a buried ploughsoil recorded elsewhere across the central area. Later pottery found includes 17th – 18th century Bristol-type Slipware and Manganese Mottled Ware, as well at white earthenwares, which presumably relate to the settlement development in this area.
