'This feature was observed in section on the quarry face. Clay-bonded stone walls formed a compartment 0.58m wide at the base and 1.20m high. The roof appeared to have been corbelled and had collapsed into the interior. The stone walls were extensively burnt. A thin organic layer at the base contained animal droppings.'
