A single pit was exposed at the base of a drainage channel excavated along the southwestern edge of the proposed motorway. It was oval in shape and measured 0.76m in length, 0.52m in width, and 0.23m in depth and had been partially truncated by the ditching bucket during the excavation of the channel. It contained gradually sloped sides to a concave rounded base and had been filled with a grey/black silty clay containing frequent inclusions of charcoal and occasional small stone and oxidised clay measuring 0.05m in thickness. This lay below a secondary fill which consisted of a compact grey clay containing moderate inclusions of small stone measuring 0.18m in thickness. No further archaeological features or deposits were exposed and no finds were recovered. A radiocarbon date of 2590 +/- 70 BP (Cal BC 850-520) was recovered from the fill which places the pit in the Late Bronze Age-Early Iron Age. It is likely that the pit is associated with a potential site at the very edge of the proposed motorway in the adjacent field to the southwest.
