Description: unit number attributed twice - other unit is fill of pit (centre 698,419 - 974,825) JMR 10.2.2010 

 

Discussion: Removing rest of fill of grave 2416. We found a wall running towards the N side of the grave but it di not show in the section of the grave cut. We thought perhaps the grave cut was incomplete and so cleaned back and found the wall. We then followed the cut all the way around a few centimeters. We did not sieve or sample as all the finds were from the section and therefore entirely out of context - especially after a year of silting out and a couply of weeks of being trampled on.
