On the surface of 3:2 a new feature was found, labelled 3:2 Feature 1. This feature, an area of darker soil(2.5YR 3/4), was located along the western baulk and was irregular in shape. A large limestone stone was found in the the middle of the feature (c. 18 cm x 10 cm).
The jars (2:1 Feature 2, Burial 4 [cat. 329], 3:1 Feature 1 [cat. 331], and 2:2 Feature 3 [cat. 330]) were further ex- posed (Fig.s 44 & 45). Charcoal was collected from U3 2:1 Feature 2 (Burial 4 cat. 315), U3/3A 3:1 (cat. 316) and 3:2 (cat. 317). Some sherds were recovered from this spit, likely associated with the complete pots (cat. 319, 321).
Charcoal (cat. 320) was found and charcoal specks ap- pear across the surface of 3:3 (Fig. 48). No other mate- rial was found in this layer. In the south of the trench the soil was noted to be very clay-like in structure.
Excavating 3:2 Feature 1 revealed another limestone block (c. 20 cm x 12 cm) below the one discovered in the previous spit. The feature was considerably dis- turbed by an insect nest. Fragments of human teeth and bone were found beneath the second stone and the feature was renamed Burial 6. Three ceram- ic sherds were also recovered (cat. 322) from this context, just under the limestone. A small chunk of sandstone was also found within the burial feature. Other ceramic sherds were found as it was excavat- ed (cat. 326) and some charcoal samples (cat. 323).
