Ditch

Discussion

A slightly curvilinear ditch, cut by enclosure ditch 011AB10005 to the north. Three finds were recovered from the 2 excavated segments, these being a flint fragment, a prehistoric potsherd and a fragment of Samian. The fill was a dark loamy sand (Munsell 10/YR/42) with less than 5% chalk inclusions. The ditch had a round-based V profile, and was cut into sand & gravel and iron-panned sand.
