Unit 3052

Category: layer    dug in 1998

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: mortar 

Data Category Information: Description: not excavated

Dimensions: 8.6m W to E, 0.3m N to S, 0.23m thick 

Discussion: Mortar in wall F218 between bricks (3051). thickish ( in max more than 10cm ) To thin ( in min, less than 2cm) Varied in length, however, this material, however, indicates in certain places that discontinuity of the mortar less well quality of building.

Update 2015: Since wall F. 218 was equated with F. 7558, this unit should be considered as equal to the mortar unit 21188, which was allocated to F. 7558. Any consideration of the plans/samples/finds of one should take into equal account the documentation of the other. AJM 12/07/2015.
