Unit 30081

Category: Cut    dug in 2016

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: posthole repurposed as a pot palcement 

Data Category Information: Description: posthole

Description: sides under cut at NE and SW, corresponding to erosion of the top break of slope at the SW.

Modified around top of cut creating a rectangular, flat 'ledge' to the N and an angular (45 degree) slope to the W and S. 

Discussion: the undercutting at the NE is rounded and 0.03m deep whereas the undercutting opposite it is very angular at a c.45 degree angle . This together with a corresponding erosion of the top B.o.S at the SW suggests that something has been loosened and removed. The profile of the base, the shape in plan and the vertical sides suggest a post. F7955 of which 30081 is the cut is situated undrneath the suggested line of the entrance ladder for B131. Could 30081 be the support of a post stabilizing this ladder?
