Discussion

A pit in the east of area 11CD. The pit became visible when the area was trowelled back (spits 011CD05444 and 011CD05577), after stone setting 011CD20000 was lifted. The pit was originally excavated as part of ditch 011CD07121 and slot 011CD05677 and issued with separate context numbers when the edges of the feature became apparent. The relationship with ditch 011CD07121 to the east was not established. Fill 011CD05644 sealed a semi-circular stone setting (011CD05653 see Stone setting 011CD05653 from the north).
