Line of Post Holes

  

Phasing
Discussion

A line, approximately 10.5m long, of sixteen post holes aligned ENE/WSW in the north of area 11BC. Further post holes may have existed to the west but solution material in the fills made this difficult to determine. At least two phases of activity can be seen in this area, further borne out by the mass of post holes recovered from the east of structure 011BC10004. This line of posts is on the same alignment as post hole structures 002CB00100 and 002CB00524 to the north and would appear to belong to the earlier phase of activity. At a later date, structure 011BC10005 was erected which obscured the evidence of the function of this line of posts. Two of the three sherds of pottery recovered from post hole 011BC00268 were of Early Saxon date.
