Discussion

A master number issued to a series of enclosure ditches in area 2DC. The master comprises of two ditch sequences, an east/west and a north/south aligned series of cuts and re-cuts. The master also includes two semi-circular features to the east of the south end of the north/south aligned ditches.

The features are generally slight; quite shallow and up to 50cm in width. It is probable that the features are gullies containing fence posts as post holes were recovered from a number of cuts (e.g. 002DC00205 and 002DC00104). The east/west gullies comprise of at least three or four cuts, the north/south of at least four. Unfortunately, the shallow nature of the features meant that no relationships could be established in the field.

The north/south ditches cut through east/west aligned ditch 002DC00186, the ditches in this master would appear to be the direct replacements of an earlier enclosure complex (masters 002DC00186 and 002DC00151). A cobbled surface (002DC00135) covered the north/east corner of the enclosure and probably represents the entrance. The surface is cut through by a number of Early Saxon features including a pit (002DC00096) and a dog skeleton (002DC00009). The Grubenhaus 002DC00042 is placed in the centre of the entrance and suggests that the enclosure had gone out of use by the Early Saxon period. This, together with the dating evidence for the ditches, suggests a Romano-British date for the complex. It seems likely that there was a fenced enclosure in this area for a long time, one that was re-aligned on a number of occasions.
