Engaged wooden pillar on the Eastern Wal - southern half. The post has almost completely burnt out only surviving in the bottom of the scar. On the north side at the highest (extent) point of the surviving pillar, is a feature attached to it (F.6070). At the base of the pillar is a small curb, or proto-bench. The plaster is 4-5cm thick, indicating the pillar has been in place for some time - most likely since the building's inception. A thin plaster later can be seen behind, on the wall, continuing less than half of the mud brick.

The burning of the post may have re-kindled the seat of thefire and has caused a V-shaped burn scar on the wall - remaining soot due to extreme temperatures.
