Discussion

A large, rectangular structure in the northern-most part of the area, aligned ENE/WSW. The position of the doors is uncertain, most likely there were two entrances centrally opposed in the long walls. One internal post-hole may have formed the support of the internal wall of a partition, this seems likely as the width of the partition, 1.00m, would be typical of partitions elsewhere on the site. The post holes of the southern wall are far more substantial than those in the northern wall. It is possible that this structure also had an open west end (see also 002CC01433). The function of a group of three post holes to the west is unknown.
