A series of fragmented wooden stakes which were on occasion joined by thin horizonal bundles of rods or withies. The form of the structure is not clear however, and it is likley that they represent repairs, additions and replacements of one or more originals. The structures formed a broad linear arrangement concentrated along the western edge of a channel. As some of the elements are typical roundwood stakes it is difficult to see them as anything other than a supporting fence or revetment structure. Alternatively they may have been re used and simply dumped as makeup along the edge of the channel, perhaps as hard material for a boat landing. One of the plans was C14 dated to the Late Bronze Age (835-765 cal BC) (1)
