Centreline trenching (CRDS 2006) identified a circular bowl-shaped cut 1.1m by 0.25m deep. Ash and silted deposits filled the cut. There was no evidence to suggest the date of the feature. The location of the pit, in low-lying and poorly drained land, is interesting and would explain the silting of the pit. No other features of any antiquity were identified in the vicinity.
