Discussion

A large, regular Grubenhaus in the centre of area 2DA. The structure was immediately to the east of ditch, master 002DA00114 (within master 002DA07044) and is cut by medieval furrow 002DA00105 (within master 002DA07046). The fills contained a moderate amount of unfired clay. One post hole, in the west side, was discernible during excavation.
