012AB07255

Post Hole Group

Phasing

No diagnostic material culture was recovered from these features, the only find being a charcoal sample. Due to its shallow nature, the relationship of post hole 012AB00371 with ditch 012AB00415 was not established.

Discussion

Although truncated, enough remained of this feature to demonstrate that a structure formed of two lines of three double post holes was present. The lines were opposed, and were almost exactly 3 metres apart. As the structure appears to have the same alignment as ditches 012AB00415 and 012AB00242, it may relate to an entranceway, or some form of stock control.
