Post Hole Group

Phasing

The only find was a snail sample from post hole 002CB01231. The location and typology place these post holes in the Anglian period.

Discussion

This was group of 9 post holes, located in the central part of area 2CB, just to the east of a large group of post holes (002CB07244). It is possible to create half of a rectangular structure using seven of the post holes, but the area to the south and east was completely removed by a Medieval/Post-Medieval chalk quarry, so the rest of this possible structure had been destroyed prior to excavation.
