E-W oriented plastered bench.
Rectangular in shape the bench steps up at the east where a small recess appears to have been deliberatly constructed in its fabric. The bench is covered with thick white plaster the recess is 90mm deep. The bench had been cut away by a foundation at the west so its full extent not seen.
From Archive Report 2006:
The sequence of construction of the bench was relatively straightforward with a single thick white plaster coating, (12822), lain over a make-up layer that was shared with platform F.2057 to the north, 12874. The sequence of plaster and make-up would appear to predate the plaster coatings on platform F.2055 to the south and F.2057 to the north suggesting the bench was the primary installation, within the central east
suite of features. The bench was also coated with a distinct white plaster, as were platforms F.2057, F.2058 and F.2059. This was a different treatment than that applied to the rest of the buildings floor surfaces and the other platforms, which had grey/brown surfaces, again a repeated pattern seen within other buildings in this sequence. |
