Discussion

This was an irregularly shaped spit, removed in order to fully define the stone settings (part of 012AD07229) initially seen after the removal of spit 012AD00380.

Of the material culture recovered, the pottery was mostly of a later Roman date (20 sherds), although 6 sherds of Anglian pottery were also recovered. Five oyster shells were found. Cattle were the predominant animal species (45%), although sheep/goat were well represented with 39%. The only other significant species was pig with 11%.
