 A large pit in the south/east of area 11CE. The north side of the pit cut through enclosure ditch 011CE20010 and the south side was cut by ditch 011CE00512. The relationship with enclosure ditch 011CE07093 was not established. A group of stones were present within the pit (011CE00762) which included a chert block 37cm in length, a block of burnt sandstone 17cm in length and a block of angular chalk 26cm in length. Smaller angular chalk stones approximately 10cm in size were also present. The information in the cut context record (011CE00683) suggests the pit was not fully exavacated.
