Protected Status/Designation
- None recorded
Full Description
PRN 54183
DURING A WATCHING BRIEF ON A WATER PIPELINE A RECTANGULAR DITCHED ENCLOSURE WAS IDENTIFIED. THE DITCH WAS VERY SHALLOW AND THE NORTHERN END WAS NOT VISIBLE, SO ITS FULL EXTENT WAS NOT ASCERTAINED. THERE WAS A POSSIBLE NARROW ENTRANCE ON THE EASTERN SIDE, CLOSE TO THE SOUTH EASTERN CORNER, DELINEATED BY THE PRESENCE OF TWO DITCH TERMINALS. FINDS RECOVERED FROM THE ENCLOSURE SUGGEST A DATE BETWEEN LATE C18 AND C20. IT MAY REPRESENT A SMALL STOCK ENCLOSURE, OR THE POSITION OF A SMALL FREE-STANDING STRUCTURE. {1}{2}
