Interpretive Categories: midden-like deposit 

 

Data Category Information: none

 

Dimensions: up to 0.35m thick 

 

Discussion: mixed deposit, very dry and eroded but this lay under three walls and an oven, so probably represents the remnants of a levelling deposit or dump. However, the presence of classicla pottery and it being near the surface suggests quite an intrusive element, so not entirely to be trusted as a deposit (14533).
