Discussion

 A NE/SW aligned ditch in the south of area 11BA. A small pit (011BA00720) was cut through the south/west terminus. The ditch cuts through NW/SE aligned ditch 011BA00642 and almost certainly cuts through the ditches of enclosure 011BA07129, although this was not established during excavation. The north/east end of the ditch may continue, possibly as 011BA00489.
