Discussion: Additional oven floor? painted with red ochre and quite plastery-taken from somewher else and placed here?
Essentially the same as 5148 but the two were separated because 5149 was more plastery and painted with red ochre.

The red paint had no real meaning/ form. It's interesting that it was found here but I can't think why, really!
