Discussion

This shallow slot was only excavated along a short segment, enough, however, to recover dating evidence and to establish stratigraphic relationships. The slot contained a single fill (012AD08163), a sandy loam (Munsell colour 10YR 4/3) with 10% chalk inclusions (angular and up to 3cm in diameter). No daub or charcoal flecking were noted.

The slot was cut into sand with a U-shaped profile.
