Discussion

A linear ditch in the north of area 11CD. The east end of the ditch was cut by pit 011CD05754. The ditch cut through curvilinear ditch 011CD20008 which merges with it to the east. Both were excavated beyond this point as a single ditch although it is evident in plan that two separate features are present. The context numbers issued to the merged portion of the ditches appear in this document as this is the latest ditch but it is unclear how far the first cut extended. Both ditches are of a very similar alignment to main enclosure ditch 011CD20002 to the south and are probably related to that phase of enclosure.
