Pit
Phasing
No finds were recovered from this pit. The feature was cut by ditch 012AD05066,
although the section indicates that it was cut by
the final phase of the ditch only, with the pit possibly cutting into earlier
phases. Although the plan indicates the pit extended across the length
of ditch 012AD05066, the
section has it on the eastern side only, where it probably also cut
away ditch 012AD05222.
