This site was discovered during monitoring of the South-Eastern Motorway. It had been badly damaged by drainage works and had suffered severe tree-root damage. It covered an area of c. 10m by 10m. A number of possible features were identified but were found to be very damaged. The fill of these features consisted mainly of burnt stone and charcoal-rich soil. The shape of one feature suggested that it may have been a trough, but it was truncated and damaged by roots, and so it is impossible to be sure of its true nature.
