DITCH

Phasing

Discussion

A curvilinear ditch to the south of master 002DC00186 in area 2DC. A section to determine the relationship between the two ditches was inconclusive but it was thought likely that they were contemporary due to the similarity of the finds and fills. Likewise, the relationship with the north/south ditches of master 002DC00150 to the east was not established although it is probable that they are later features.
