Discussion

The spit was excavated to define the line of the ditch (012AD00511) just to the north of pebble surface 012AD01005. The material removed was a sandy loam (Munsell colour 10YR 4/2), with 5% chalk inclusions. No daub or charcoal flecking was noted. In the event, the ditch and a small depression filled with the same material (012AD00548) were defined.
