The fill was a sandy loam (Munsell 10YR 4/3), with a 5% chalk inclusion rate. There was no charcoal or daub flecking present. Although the animal bone recovered was predominantly sheep/goat, some cattle was also present. Unusually, like ditch 012AD00005, a cat humerus was found. The ditch was cut into white chalk with a U-profile (where it was deep enough to be established).
