Dig Day #7

A hard slog on DD#7. The ditch system is going well, but lots of soil needs to be moved. Some nice pottery came out and at least three re-cuts have been recorded for this boundary. Also, the large pit was difficult to excavate, as the edge was very hard to find, so all that can be done is to hit it hard and hope. Messy, but that worked. The gravel fill was finally found to end at a natural clay, so it can now be finished on DD#8. 

We will be able to open the new trench soon, after completing the excavation and recording of these features.
