Undated ditch identified at south-west end of trench 2, on a north-south orientation. Thought to be a drainage ditch which could potentially have acted as a field boundary. Follows the same orientation as current field boundaries and could represent the enclosure of former medieval open fields. Probably post- medieval in date. Other details: Figures 4, 8: ditch 2009.
