Description:
Trench. Poorly defined trench, visible as a shallow depression intermittently running through the pine trees. Dimensions, 135cm wide at the top, 55cm at base, 50cm deep on the eastern side, and 30cm deep on the western side. The trench appears as a series of pits in some areas. Possibly this is the extension of trench F602. There is a small shallow pit in line with the trench. (Field photos 5-10) Trench becomes ill defined and then becomes clear once again as it continues to the south-east. It appears to dip and rise continually
