Category: Cut    dug in 2003

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: Cut- wall foundation 

Data Category Information: Description: foundation trench

Dimensions: 12.80m NW-SE x 1.10m x 0.80m Deep 

Discussion: Cut for wall foundation (7590) - for eastern outer wall of late period buliding 41. Encloses Spaces 212 and 216 to the west. Late period = Post Neolithic -Probabaly Roman/Byzantine.
At present (2/8/03), 8706 has only been excavated in a sondage. It may prove that all walls in building 41, (with the exception of F.1222), were laid within a single cut. However, as the foundations will not be fully excavated this season, we're playing safe and dividing walls into separate entities with their own feature numbers.
