Five agricultural features were exposed during topsoil-stripping adjacent to KD031–027. These were ditches, gullies and drains and were of post-medieval date. One stone quarry pit was located; it was 11.5m by 9m by 1m and yielded a single fragment of medieval green-glazed ceramic. The monitoring is ongoing in 2008.
