Discussion: Pale orangish brown clay packing in SE corner of platform F.7114. This packing is cut by the post retrieval pit F.7113 in its W side.
The function of this packing might have been to extend the initial length of the platform until meeting the S wall of the space, or to repair the platform in this corner.
The N plaster ridge that limited the extension of this unit towards the N was taken as part of this unit (4 x 10 x 5 cm).
This unit was made of two types of clay: an orangish brown one (9cm deep) and a greyish brown clay (6cm deep) underneath the first one. This unit was sloping sharply towards the S.
