Pit
Phasing
The only material culture recovered were four Roman pot sherds. Apart from
being sealed by spit 012AD00506, the
feature had no other stratigraphic relationships
Discussion
This was a small, shallow pit, which contained a single fill (012AD00866),
a sandy loam (Munsell coilour 10YR 4/2) with 10-20% chalk inclusions. Both
daub and charcoal flecking were present. It is in a line with stone setting
012AD00833
and with pit 012AD00869, indicating
that it may be the remnants of a large post hole rather than a pit.
The feature was cut into angular chalk with a U-shaped profile, and
was plough truncated.
