Entry: | Rather humid day under the shelter. What stated as a bit of a flap ended fine as we are about the shift some of the platforms or at least eat into them. It appears that what was considerd to be the the east wall and part of the south and north walls of... click here for more... |

Entry: | Most humid day under the shelter so far but at least the annoying black midgy things weren't so annoying today. Shahina came up this morning and she'd obviously been mentally chewing over our walls since she pointed out that we'd got walls sitting on top ... click here for more... |

Today I have been excavating areas of the rubbish pit beside the hearth. There are up to 5 pots in there, 2 grind stones, a stone with red ochre on it, lots and lots of bones, some mortar/plaster/burnt material spill seemingly from the hear... click here for more... |

In the last few days, I have been working on platform F1312, taking down the layers and working out the relationships with the surrounding features. The area around the rubbish pit (F.1325) has become a little clearer, but some of the lay... click here for more... |

Entry: | Realised towards the end of the windy day last week when 'Ancient Clues' was being filmed in our house (the 14th I think) that I was completely fed up with digging endless floors and floor make-up layers. However the last couple of days a welcome respite ... click here for more... |

Yesterday I spent time taking off layers of wall plaster, and excavating another hard lump of material beside the probable ladder setting (11271). There are many of these which have come off now, it really seems that this area was used fo... click here for more... |
