PRN Number Site Name Record Type 50335 - MST11441 Post Holes, Watling Street Monument A series of postholes identified during archaeological trial trenching along Watling Street. The features may represent the remains of a former out building, agricultural building or possibly a fence.

Monument Types and Dates POST HOLE (Unknown date) Evidence SUB SURFACE DEPOSIT STRUCTURE (Unknown date) Evidence SUB SURFACE DEPOSIT

Description and Sources Description Five post holes and a small pit identified during trial trenching. The postholes averaged 0.35m in diameter and 0.2m in depth. All were circular in plan, except one which was oval. The pit measured 0.75m in diameter and 0.2m in depth and had a bowl-shaped profile. Several postholes and the pit contained a charcoal deposit. No dateable finds were recovered. It is difficult to determine the function of the postholes although they could have formed part of an outhouse, an agricultural building, or a fence.
