NOT EXCAVATED
Eroded east wall of building 6; the central portion was drawn in 1993 (section 17) and has largely collapsed. The north and south ends of the wall are better preserved, though weathered - especially at the south end which is also obscured by shoring for its southernmost 0.5m.
Five courses of bricks were visible at each end, though individual bricks within the courses were more difficult to define. The north bricks are mid-brown in colour with a coarse crumb texture and only very occasional flecks of charcoal. The south end appears similar. The brick courses are 0.05 to 0.09m high.
The mortar is greyer in colour with a dense, compact consistency and sparse/moderate flecks of orange brick, white plaster and charcoal (to c. 10mm) and occasional fragments of bone and shell. The thickness of the mortar varies from 0.02 to 0.07m.
At the north end a block of orange bricky material sits below the wall and above floor 4252. Along the rest of the section no structure was apparent to the deposit between 4252 and the lowest definable course of the wall. |
