A small number of un-stratified finds from the site consisted of two hone stones from the top<br />

soil and a perforated stone disc from under the spread of bank material which had been<br />

deposited after the site was levelled in modern times. A quantity of animal bone fragments<br />

was recovered, the majority belonging to the backfill of the two excavated souterrains. Only<br />

14% of the total animal bones (425) was identifiable and consisted primarily of sheep/goat<br />

and then cattle.<br />
