Pit
Phasing
The only diagnostic material culture recovered were two late Romano-British
pot sherds. The relationship with ditch 012AD07227
was not established. Apart from being sealed by spit 012AD00506,
the pit had no other stratigraphic relationships.
Discussion
The pit contained a single fill (012AD00778), a
sandy loam (Munsell colour 10YR 4/2), with 20-25% chalk inclusions (up
to 10cm in diameter). In addition, some larger chalk fragments were also
present, particularly nearer the base. No daub or charcoal flecking were
noted.
The feature was cut into solid chalk, with a U-shaped profile.
