Discussion

 A north/south aligned ditch in the east of area 12AB. The ditch was cut by large pit 012AB00880 but the northward continuation was not visible beyond this point (the geophysical survey of the area indicates that the ditch probably extended further north). The ditch was also cut by post hole 012AB00892, and probably also post hole 012AB00890 further south although this relationship was not recorded. The fill contained charcoal and a single identifiable animal bone.
