Discussion

 A small pit with evidence of burning in the west of area 12AB. The pit may be associated with larger pit 012AB00509 to the north/west (which also has a charcoal-rich fill). Three fills are visible in the section; a charcoal rich primary fill (012AB00573), a secondary fill with a high red content (burnt daub?) which was not issued with a context number, and a final fill of silty clay loam with orange and ash flecking (012AB00508).
