Stones – not bones – the pic. entitled ‘The lower revetment wall of the Iron Age ditch in Trench T’ – unless you are a digger, you don’t get to see this stunning section of walling - so - Thank You Sigurd!
I’m wondering - where is the evidence of Bronze Age activity? It was a good location for human goings-on of all kinds - we have evidence from the Neolithic and the Iron Age….
???? Bronze Age ????
