Test pit 5 was situated north-east of a retaining wall. It contained a deep cut of a feature of indeterminate character. It may relate to the soil terracing of the adjacent land, as it produced post-medieval finds and was sealed by the subsoil, but equally it could be a large pit or linear feature created and backfilled before any major landscaping took place. The feature contained three fills which produced pottery sherds dating between the 15th and 18th century.
