What is recorded here
Exposed during pre-development archaeological testing (Excavation Licence No. 99E0330). Excavation initially uncovered a layer of irregularly arranged branches, root fragments and possible reeds or rushes. Below this layer were a number of longitudinal and transverse timbers and more irregularly arranged roots and branches set in peat. The exact function of this feature is not clear as no diagnostic artefacts were found. (Murphy and Conway 2000, 205-7)
