Situated at the S end of a low NW-S ridge. Topsoil stripping (02E0194) in advance of a gas pipeline identified what appeared to be an industrial complex (BGE: 1A/35/2) that was completely excavated (02E0857), apart from the S end of the burnt spreads. It consisted of isolated burnt material at S, and two wooden structures that burnt down. Each of these was connected with corn-drying kilns to the W. Both kilns were of the key-hole type and no artefacts were recovered.
This kiln (max. dims 3.6m x 1.7m; D 0.57m) was c. 1m SW of the wide opening of structure A (ME042-030002-). It had a bowl on the W side, a central fire-pit and a rake-out at the E end. It had only two charcoal-rich fills, and a long clay-lined flue led from the fire-pit into the structure. (Tobin and Sunderland 2003, 17-19; Tobin 2004; Tobin 2007)
