Title:   Fill of small posthole, 1st from W
Category:   Deposit
Notebook:   1108
Context:   474
Date:   2014/06/06
Stratum:   2% inclusions (fairly clean, but minimal stones - fine, mixed; ceramic sherds; bone)
Description:   Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light greyish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is moderately sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   This is the fill of a relatively small posthole, associated with other postholes (475-477) due to their similar size and depth. They seem a bit too small and shallow to be load-bearing. Perhaps these postholes supported a fence? Fill was relatively clean. It does not seem to preserve remains of wooden contents, so perhaps this and the other small posthole cut into deposit context 483 were filled before further deposition. All of these smaller postholes are situated in the southern portion of the corridor, north of church nave wall 20.
