As we do not have access to a digging machine at the moment we are confined to trial trenches and recording what we can. Back filling by hand is the real trial.
The Great Ditch was picked up again and with lots of finds, but we could not dig to the base as it was getting too dangerous - again. Frustrating.
The shovel is standing in a 600mm wide cut into bedrock. 600mm is the standard width of walls on this site, so may be a robbed out one. The cut can be seen in the section and reaches to just under the subsoil. The surrounding land is made up of dumped material.
