Discussion

This spit helped to define the north-south aligned gullies (002CA01016, 002CA01018 and 002CA01128), although further cleaning was carried out in the following (1988) season. The material removed was a sandy loam (Munsell colour 10YR 4/4). There is no plot of the finds due to a problem with the three-dimensional recording system. Finds included twelve Anglian pot sherds and nine Roman sherds. In common with almost every spit taken across the buried soil deposit 002CA00080, cattle bones again represented the most numerous animal species (56%).
