Full Description
It was difficult to determine what the site was used for on the basis of the information gathered, but post holes and other potentially structural remains were identified in Trench 1 on this site, suggesting possible direct habitation of the edge of the former marshland, and possibly also seasonal activity. It is suggested that the remains may represent only one phase of occupation. {1}{2}
