General remarks This is the northern section of what was L1069. This area consists of flat lying cobbles and broken pottery as well as a large piece of slag found between the two flagstones. It is associated with L1077 and L1069. Two flagstones mark what may be a narrow entrance to a surface. The surface continues into the eastern baulk, possibly existing in trench C4.

Has note Contexts excavated in trenches were recorded using the "locus system." A locus is any discrete three-dimensional entity excavated in a trench. The key to the locus system is the recognition that a locus is any one thing. Differences in soil composition or texture are therefore as important as, for example, the difference between a pit and a wall. If two entities were distinct, they were considered separate loci and were therefore assigned separate locus numbers. It should also be noted that every context excavated in a trench was given a locus number and thus the trench itself is made up completely of excavated loci.
