Discussion

This spit was removed in an attempt (unsuccessful) to define the ditches seen on the geophysical survey. More animal bones and objects were recovered from this spit than from any of the others, and although they could not be attributed to individual features, the majority of these were above the stream channel and enclosure ditches. Of note is the partial human cranium, which was found just to the east of the stream channel. As with all of the animal bone recovered from the spits in this area, cattle bones were the most numerous species, although this spit also had a significant number of horse bones..
