Area I was a portion of the Grain-Shorne pipeline in a valley bottom north of the village of Cliff Woods excavated in 2008.

A sub-circular c.60m diameter enclosure. There were a number of pits and a cluster of stake holes outside of the enclosure. The finds from the features suggest that the site was not in use for settlement and was more like of agricultural use, perhaps a stock-compound. (1-2)
