This unit is comprised of courses of brick and mortar and a bit of rubble ( or crumbled brick) on top and against F.156. a colomn supporting the screen wall. We were able to discern this unit from F 156 easliy because F 156 has red painted plater on top and white plaster on either dise i.e. west past facing side and this unit is much more crumbly and jumbled compared tot he very nice and dense bricks of F 156.
