Full Description
A discrete grouping of seven shallow pit features. None contain any dateable evidence, but other finds; burnt bone, charcoal, burnt flint and iron slag suggest that these features may represent one of the following. Either un-urned cremation burials with associated pyre pits or the remains of furnaces involved with industrial working. Although undated they may be associated with nearby iron age/early Romano-British sites to the east (TQ 94 NW 53).(1)
