Undefined Feature
Phasing
There were only two finds from this feature, a prehistoric blade and a
Romano-British pot sherd. It was cut by another undefined feature (012AD08194),
which contained part of a fired clay loomweight. This implies that 012AD08517
was at the latest Anglian or more probably later Roman in date.

Discussion
This was a small excavated segment of what was a much larger feature. The
fill was a sandy clay loam (Munsell colour 10YR 4/4), with 10% chalk inclusions
(0.5-2.5cm in diameter). No daub or charcoal flecking were noted. The fill
was distinctive in that it contained a much higher clay content than the
fills in the surrounding features.
The feature was cut into sand & gravel, with a flat-based V-shaped
profile.
