NT 6135 6860 The second season of a four season research excavation was carried out by volunteers and professionals during July–August 2011. The work consisted of further topographic, geophysical, vegetation, erosion surveys, plus seven trenches and ten test pits.
The excavation recovered a Neolithic flint scraper and a Bronze Age barbed and tanged arrowhead as well as identifying an external ditch, an internal hut platform and the presence of a palisade feature to the rear of the site. In addition, the middle and outer defences on the rear of the site were found to be simple terraces, rather than banks and ditches as they are at the front.
