Trench 1 - The Wilderness IIIWeekend Dig 24th October 2009This week a major assault on the ditch took place. It has always been unclear whether the ditch was 2m wide at the surface, or much wider, as the damp area could be read either way.
At a depth of 90cm there is a very clear grey/green band of clay, so we chased that layer back out away from the stone revetment, hoping to find a change as we hit the ditch edge. 1997 visits |

Trench 1 - The WildernessWeekend Dig 10th Oct 09 - Some exciting Finds!No finds this week, at all!! So I thought it would be a good idea to look at some finds that turned up a few weeks ago.
Derrick carried out a sweep over the trench and detected a strong signal above the back of the bank where most of the finds have been coming from. 1930 visits |
