Discussion

 A small curvilinear ditch in the south of area 12AB. At the time of excavation, the ditch was believed to continue northwards as 012AB07192 although it is more probable that it continues as 012AB00144. The complexity of the features in this area make the continuation difficult to ascertain but the similarity to ditch 012AB07185 (which curves in an L-shape just to the south/west of this feature and continues north parallel to ditch 012AB00144) make it likely that the two ditches are phases of the same period of activity. No finds were recovered from the ditch although the fill had slight charcoal flecking.
