Part of Gully Complex 002DA07044

Phasing

As can be seen from the phased pottery finds, the majority are Medieval or later (31 out of 54 sherds). The gully cut through Grubenhaus 002DA00194.

Discussion

This was the western of two central gullies in a series of north/south aligned gullies in areas 2DA and 2DB. The eastern central gully was not excavated. The master number for the southward continuation of the gullies is 002DB00075. The complex was immediately to the west of a medieval headland and it seems likely that the gullies were associated with a medieval field boundary. The edges and base of the gullies are iron-panned, indicating the presence of water. The feature was heavily rooted and burrowed.
