Discussion

A Grubenhaus in the centre of a small enclosure in the south of area 11BA. The structure had four features excavated in the north/west quadrant although it is unclear whether any are real post holes. The feature in the centre of the north/east side is likely to be a post hole but it was not issued with separate context numbers. The relationship of the structure with the slot in the north/east was not established during excavation. The south side of the structure is not clearly defined and may have been obscured by other features. The base of the Grubenhaus had been cut down into a buried soil deposit (011BA00445)
