Discussion

A curvilinear ditch in the north of area 11BD/CD. This is probably a later phase of an enclosure system (of which 011CD07099 is the primary phase) as the east/west portion is on exactly the same alignment as ditches 011CD20008 and 011CD07091. It cuts through an earlier phase, ditch 011CD05170,and is cut by north/south slot 011CD05162. The relationship of the east end with ditch 011CD20008 was not established.
