Discussion

 A curvilinear ditch in the east of area 11CD. The south part of the ditch (011CD05077) cut through ditch 011CD20018 and slot 011CD05649 and all three were only visible after the removal of stone setting 011CD20000 and spits 011CD05444 and 011CD05577. The north part (011CD05073) cut through ditch 011CD05572 and was cut by a post hole within master 011CD20019. The ditch is likely to have formed a small enclosure, possibly within enclosure 011CD20002 or linked to one of the enclosure ditches in the south/east corner. The ditch is of Anglian date, possibly as late as middle Saxon.
