Discussion

 A segment of NE/SW aligned ditch in the south of area 11BC. The ditch cut through enclosure ditches 011BC07126 and 011BC07127. The east end of the ditch appears to turn to the north at the intersection with ditch 011BC07126 but the continuation was not visible beyond this point. The partial skeleton of a dog (011BC01074) lay to the south/west of the terminus and may originally have been within the ditch.
