During the second phase of an evaluation in 1994 two further features were recorded of iron age date. One was a small bowl-shaped pit, 0.60m diameter & 0.25m deep which contained sherds of iron age pottery and an unidentified metal object. The other was a length of ditch (diameter between 0.8 - 1.5m, running north for 25 metres and then curving to the north-west. The fill contained around 200 pot sherds, including a vessel with a "whey-strainer", of around about c.100 BC as well as animal bones and burnt flint. These feature may be part of an iron age settlement (TR 36 NW 359) found just to the north in 1996.(1)
