Full description

Sheldon, L., 2010, Land Around Pinn Court Farm, Pinhoe, Devon. Archaeological Evaluation (Report - Evaluation). SDV347870.

Broadly parallel north-east/south-west orientated ditches were identified in the south-western half of trench 51. Both were steep sided, flat based in profile, and contained single fills. 74 fragments of fired clay were recovered from one of the fills along with a chert scraper. An environmental sample recovered from this same fill, identified further quantities of fired clay, as well as burnt stone, magnetic material, and small quantities of charcoal.

Both ditches coincided with anomalies depicted by the geophysical survey.
