Unit 3100

Category: layer    dug in 1998

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: brick,mortar 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: roof (building); Material: brick&mortar; Deposition: heterogeneous

Dimensions: 0.35 m NS x 0.27 m EW x 0.70 m high 

Discussion: Top layer of feature 99, indistinguishable as brick or mortar, more a general rough combination of building material. This wall was probably constructed from remnant material from elsewhere.

F.99- The wall initially appeared to be keyed into wall F.263 as part of wall appeared to have been cut away and infill inserted. Further excavation revealed more ambiguity as the wall seemed to not have been obviously cut out. Some keying may nevertheless have occurred. 

Recognition: visible layer, post-trowelling 

Definition: reasonably clear onto wall F.263 

Execution: trowel + mattock 

Condition: weathered, crumbly, dry 

Consistency: crumbly, coarse + gritty, loose 

Colour: 10 YR 5/4 yellowish brown 

Texture: fairly gritty silt 

Bedding: massive

Finds Room Information:

All material from site passes through the finds room for washing and separating before it is passed onto the various lab teams. The finds room keeps a basic inventory of what is found. A finds material type list is given here. Further analytical detail maybe provided by the Lab Team data below.
