Inputting context sheets i found this amazing explaination,
Cut 92331
Shape in plan, Not perceptible
Corners, none
Break of slope, Not perceptible
Sides, Not clearly defined
The fill for the cut was 92332 which was discribe as indistingushable from 90956 the layer that it was cut into
No sizes given or plans, section or photos,
I think this is pretty wicked as a waste of paper }

Drunky - Is it possible that they had been told to record a feature that they didn't believe actually existed? That sounds like a pretty good description of nothing!

Theres a second sheet with the same initials which discribes a deposit 2mm thick and 15mm wide, no length and no matrix to be fair this was one from part of the site i was supervising so that ones my fault.
It was a long streessful job so mabye some madness had crept in
Ive been freed by feild work so no more of that for me

why bother filling in context sheets .................... in fact why bother being on site or actually doing archaeology if this is the attitude / competence level...................

indeed... as most commercial archaeology finds very little archaeology one would hope for more excitement rather than silliness
Found a context sheet from one of my sites though...
Cut, filled with 12th century Church
I guess it is strictly true! :o)
