Discussion

This spit was removed in an attempt  to define the ditches seen on the geophysical survey, which appeared to curve in towards each other. No features were defined at this level. Of note were 2 late Roman coins and a number of copper alloy artefacts, including a square object perforated with 4 holes. None of the objects could be attributed to a specific feature.Unlike the animal bone recovered from all of the other spits in this area where cattle was the most numerous species, both sheep/goat and cattle had a similar count.
