Discussion

The single recognised fill was 012AD08491, a sandy loam (Munsell colour 10YR 4/3), with 20% chalk inclusions (1-10cm in diameter). Some charcoal but no daub flecking was noted. Animal bone finds are noted in the context record, although they must have been only non-zoned material, as they do not appear in the animal bone database. The section indicates that a less stoney primary fill was present on the base, but this was not noted during rapid excavation.

The pit was cut into natural sand and sand & gravel, with a V-shaped profile.
