Discussion

  A short, curvilinear slot in area 11CD. The slot may be associated with similar feature 011CD05227 to the north, possibly forming a complex entrance structure into the enclosure formed by ditch 011CD20002. The east end of the slot belled out (011CD05762), possibly because of a post in the terminus. A stone setting (011CD05220) lay above the east terminus. The quern fragment 011CD05634AE is probably from the stone setting rather than the fill of the slot. The relationship between the slot and a pebble surface (011CD05221), also under the stone setting, was not fully established.
