Discussion

 An east/west aligned ditch in the south of area 12AB. The ditch is a relatively early feature, cut by seven ditches (012AB00134, 012AB00144, 012AB07185, 012AB07189, 012AB07192, 012AB07193 and 012AB07195), two slots (012AB00211 and 012AB00284) and a pit (012AB00498). The west end of the ditch appears to merge with ditch 012AB00415 but no relationship was established between the two. The full extent of the ditch was also not established and very little material was recovered.
