Notes about this historic site
1 Complex double rectangular enclosure. Storage pits predating the outer boundary were found. Due to the size of the feature only the 5m easement for the pipeline was excavated.
2 Double ditched enclosure and pig group probably dating to the later Iron Age. Despite the lack of excavation on this site it is reasonable to suppose from the available evidence that the area enclosed within the ditch sequence was that of a domestic settlement.
