Summary
A 'Puddle Pond' N. of and possibly associated with the enclosure of the LBA farm on Cock Hill (see 2027) contained pot-boilers, late Bronze Age and early Iron Age pottery. No postholes were found in the depression or around its rim. It seemed to be a pond used for watering cattle in the late Bronze Age, becoming largely filled with plough soil by the Iron Age.{1}{2}
