Category: layer    dug in 2000

Area: Trench I 

Interpretive Categories: Space infill 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: homogeneous

Dimensions: 0.13m EW x 1.44m NS x 0.1m deep 

Discussion: This fill was first recognised at the western section of 6521 as fill left arbitrary just next to the grave cut around the same levels of 3477. So it was taken outright at the section the same as 3477. Underneath came a layer of yellow mortarish clay. 

Recognition: Western section of burial F700 - bin inside, defined by the plaster and different colour - this unit is the soil above it

Post-depositional Features: Animal activity and roots
