DMV update

 


At the DMV site today we opened up a 2m x 5m trench and pottery started to come up very quickly, along with some features. 


So we then expanded the trench to 5m x 5m.


We then cleaned the base of the trench to highlight the features, these being a possible linear feature, two burnt clay areas and a dark semi-circular patch with concentrated charcoal inclusions. 


Considering that this is primarily supposed to be a medieval site these pottery examples look very early, but we will let an expert have a look and finalise the dates for all the fragments we found.   

There are now features to be dug and we will be back on site soon.
