Post Hole Group

Phasing

No finds were recovered from the fills of these features. The location and typology would place these post holes either in the Anglian or Middle Saxon periods.

Discussion

This was group of 6 post holes, located some 4.5 metres to the east of Grubenhaus 002CB01261, and just to the north-west of post hole group 002CB07247. They are larger than most of the other post holes in the immediate area, and as such have a similarity with features 011BF10019 and 002DA00259, which have been interpreted as possible Middle Saxon granaries.
