Miscellaneous Solution Holes

Phasing

Discussion

A group of mainly solution holes to the east of post hole structure 011BB10001 and west of possible structure 011BB10003. Two of the features were recorded as post holes (011BB00278 and 011BB00304). Feature 011BB00344 is also likely to be a post hole (considering the amount of charcoal in the fill), possibly associated with pit 011BB00209 to the east. Several of the features were cut by Medieval furrows (master 011BB07055).
