Group Description
-
- A series of intercutting refuse pits dating to the Early Post Medieval period were dug into the western area of the site, and it was determined that the sequence of their use involved the pits being dug, the refuse deposited, and the pit subsequently backfilled. Within the deposits there was an abundance of animal bones found, while in others large amounts of CBM and animal bone confirmed that these were refuse pits. The capping layers of these pits were noted to be of contemporary date to the refuse fills.
