Description
The pits and disturbance at rear of the Old Latin House may indicate small scale quarrying for sand and gravel which were later backfilled or they may have been dug for the primary purpose of waste and rubbish disposal. Later modern material on the site may be from quite recent disturbance on the site as the result of ground clearance (B1).
