This site was at the base of a north-facing slope. It consisted of an isolated pit measuring 1.7m (north–south) by 1.2m. It was subrectangular and had a concave profile. The primary fill consisted of a layer of charcoal-rich burnt clay. This was sealed by a friable, mid-brown, silty clay. This feature may be a roasting pit or trough. The associated mound may have been removed by the intense agricultural activity on this land.
