Discussion
The pit contained a single fill, a sandy loam (Munsell colour 10YR 4/3),
with 10% chalk inclusions (0.5-1.5cm in diameter). No daub or charcoal
flecking were noted. Also found was a deposit of dark-grey to almost black
unfired clay.
The feature was cut through the terminus of ditch 012AD08087,
and into sand & gravel, with a U-shaped profile.
