Full Description
The evaluation recorded ditches and pits (most of the ditches were n-s aligned). They were located in a tight group, with the earlier features (AD 550-700) to the north and the later features (AD 700-850) to the south, although a number of features contained ceramics from both periods. Many of the features contained daub and burnt flint. One trench on the western edge of the evaluation area also recorded a mid early medieval feature.
