Line of Post Holes

Phasing

Discussion

An east/west aligned line of post holes in the south of area 11BA. This is one of several lines of post holes in the vicinity, all probable fence lines. The post holes concentrate in the space between the two main enclosures in this area. This space, between the enclosure ditches of 011BA07130 and 011BA07129, also contains several short ditches (containing structural evidence), possibly blocking, or forming entrances into, the main enclosure. The west end of this line of post holes may have been cut away by Grubenhaus 011BA07005.
