Located on the plateau of a broad low hill and 17m N of the ring-ditch (ME038-071001-). This (208) is a subrectangular rounded area (int. dims c. 8m x c. 8m) defined by a funnel-shaped fosse (Wth of top 3.45m; max. D 1.56) creating a circular external edge (ext. diam. 15.3-15.8m). Two basal layers in the fosse had a large proportion of shale, but the ditch was re-cut on almost the same line, and the fills of this fosse had a similar make-up. A second re-cut had a V-shaped section and its lower fills indicate a slower infilling, after which there was a steady accumulation. There were no internal features and the only artefact recovered was a scraper from the upper fill of the fosse. No bone occurred anywhere in the deposits. (Rathbone 2009, 5-6)
