Discussion

 A short curvilinear ditch in area 12AB. The ditch cut through ditches 012AB00999 and 012AB01031 and was cut by pit 012AB00878. No relationship was established with slot 012AB00569. The fill contained a moderate amount of finds including charcoal and daub flecking. This feature may be a re-cut of ditch 012AB01031 with an Anglian date likely for both.
