The depths (mostly 9.6-10.5m) with the highest concentration of the fragments suggest that there may have been a period of intense dumping. There was evidence of butchery on the sheep/goats whereas, there were limited signs of butchery on the cattle. The dogs found were a smaller Roman breed, similar to those recovered from Tripontium. It was common in from 100-400AD for disused wells to be used for dog burials.<ref name="Richardson" />
