Post Hole Group

 
 

Discussion

A group of eight post holes which may form part of a fence-line to the south-east of post-hole structure 002CC00489. The post holes are shallow, varying in depth between 6 - 12 cm in depth with a mean of 8 cm, and lie between 75 - 645 cm apart although others have probably been destroyed by plough truncation. All eight post holes lie below spit 002CC00018 and are cut into chalk natural.
