Discussion: Thýs context ýs also sýtuated wýthýn the F549. It undrlays the context 5081 whých ýs also sýtuated wýthýn the same feature. It was consýst of broken oven bases/walls maýnly but greenýsh clay deposýt ýs also apperent and packed wýth/on top of thýs unýt. Thýs prepared surface obvýously relates to new surface preparetýon. The fýll ýs reached ýn maxýmum dýmensýons ýn 80 x 60 x 7.5 cm. Orýented N/S dýrectýon . However some broken structural remaýns suggest they have been used for repaýr work.
