Discussion

 A NNW/SSE aligned ditch in the south of area 12AA. The ditch is parallel to similar feature 012AA0085 to the east and the two may be contemporary. Both appear to be the primary cuts of ditches; 012AA00226 (east) and 012AA07165 (west). The relationships with the large curvilinear enclosure ditches to the south were not established. These ditches may form part of enclosures with the ditches to the south or may equally have extended beyond them.
