Post-abandonment colluvial silting, covering entire excavation area. Has been cut by a (late antique?) phase of funerary activity - small cemetery - to the west of Area B, and was found to seal an earlier phase of burial activity within the center-south of the area. Interface with SU1032 sharp to south of site, with underlying burial SU1027 and vessel SU1033 showing significant truncation. This may suggest that layer SU1016 represents a mixture of colluvial silting and plough soil accumulation. *Defined in 2009 and continued in 2010
