Description

A small excavation by Alan Hunt cut back the boundary bank of the only surviving 'celtic' field of a large group now almost ploughed out (Site 10) at the point where it was crossed by a farm track. The eroded area was cut back to provide a section, revealing the soil and gravel construction of the bank but no other features. No artefacts were recovered.
