Context lbf04270030: natural feature

Context lbf04270030 was interpreted as a sink hole. The natural feature is thought to be of natural origin.

Feature: lbf04270030 Site Code: lbf04 Intervention: 27
Notes: First identified after removal of topsoil by machine- F30 appeared as a deposit of sterile brown silt with a high percentage of gravel. Located at the southern end of Intervention 27- F30 disappeared beneath the southern- western and eastern LOE but its visible dimensions were 4m x c3m and upon excavation had not botttomed out within safe hand-excavation depths. The base of the feature was sought with an auger suggesting a total depth of more than 2.5m. Filled with sterile brown and grey silt- some rich in gravel- overlying a poor quality blocky desiccated peat.
Field Discussion: Probable solution hole- possibly identified during magnetometer survey
Post-ex Discussion: Animal bone was recovered from two of the deposits associated with this natural feature.
