Soil mark

Soil mark

Soil marks are differences in soil colour as a result of archaeological features. They can be seen when a ploughed out earthwork has left hard dry material of a former bank and damper wetter material from a former ditch [Mick Aston, "Interpreting the Landscape" (Tempus, 2002)] . They can also occur when a feature has cut through the top soil to reveal underlying chalk.
