AHW 14.8.2008: Walls 2408, 2427, 5058 surround space 310. Behind the plaster (13726) an older layer of plaster (17249) was discovered by taking out the room fill. It goes 30cm deeper than plaster (13726). Both plaster layers do not reach the bottom of the walls. The wall is made from two rows of mudbrick.

JMR 27.8.2009:When further excavating the room fill in space 310 we noticed that F.2427 had already been undercut last year. Under it there is a layer of fill (18355) and underneath an older wall (3314) with roughly the same orientation and belonging to an older phase of space 310.
This sheet was opened in order to document final dimensions of F.2427.

JMR 22.8.2010: F.2427 forms the eastern border of Sp. 310 - it is sitting on top of F. 3314, a wall forming the border of an earlier space (453) under Sp. 310. 2422 might be binding into 2408, as brick layers in this part seem stacked - see 10/532.
2427 consists of very dark grey brick, yellow mortar, it is plastered over on its western face (Sp. 310, 454). Single bricks are discernible in plan, one measures ca. 75+35 cm. Southern extension cuts side trench.
East of Sp.454 badly truncated by pit F.3331 and another disturbance (15161).
Upper 30-40 cm of wall removed in 2010 to check stratigraphy and for stability of truncated parts.

JMR 14.8.2011
After the 2011 season, F.2427 and Building 106 were visible in full outlines. F.2427 is sitting on older walls F.3314 and F.3357. In the south, the upper part of the wall was badly disturbed by late pits and only preserved 15cm high. NS 6.84m, EW 0.84m, height 0.24m in the south, 0.15m in the north.
