Patch of burnt bedrock, a hearth, consisting of three separate layers of burned stones, extending to a depth of 30 cms in a rough circle about 105 cms diameter. There was no sign of further structures (for example, screen or posts) beside the hearth. This was the first element of A7 to be identified

CIV

Posthole containing layers (1): earth with small stones, mostly burnt and chipples. (2): dark earth with many medium to small stones, mostly burnt. Pot from layer (2). This is a two period posthole. Layer (2) is a large round posthole, shown in section, about 20 cms W of its centre. It contained v burnt limestone pieces and dark wet earth. Layer (1), the later post hole was visible on the surface about 30 cms to the W of the centre of F00615(2), and is shallow, containing many burnt stones.

CIV

Palisade trench, about 17m long, 36 cms wide and 25 cms deep, containing some packing stones and a quantity of earth and small stones. There was no stratification to link this with the postholes of A7, but the trench ran close to and parallel with the southern line of the EIA structure. The Finds from F00617 were very numerous, and consisted of: rims and 18 body sherds of limestone gritted pottery [CH72/1721,1725,1728,1817, 3014, 3020, 3020, 3027, 3029, 3034, 3038/3145]; 20 lumps daub [CH 72/1721, 1727]; 15 frags bone [CH 72/1723, 1814, 1816, 1866, 1867, 1946]; 1 tooth [CH72 / 3144];1 arrowhead [CH72/1720] 6 flakes flint (two utilised) [CH 72/1819, 3013, 3017, 3028],1 frag polished sandstone [CH 72/ 1722], and slag and charcoal [CH 72/1724]. On the whole this assemblage seems more like that of the Neolithic (particularly the rims), and so it is more probable that F00617 should be regarded as an outlying feature of ditch F00603
