Discussion

A small, rectangular structure with 23 external and 3 internal post-holes varying from 0.10m to 0.45m in diameter. All of the post holes were truncated to some extent by plough damage. The structure appears to have two internal posts on the eastern side that may have formed part of an internal wall or partition. Interestingly, these internal posts are the deepest in this structure. Two larger post-holes on the south-western side of the building may have been door posts, no other entrance is immediately obvious. If this is so, then this structure is unique in comparison to other small structures on site, all of which appear to have entrances in the long walls.
