Full Description

A complex of 37 postholes, north of building 5125 and south of building 5124 represented one, or more likely two, surface laid buildings of individual post hole construction, gable end on to road 1825 (St Stephen's Lane). Like building 5125, its east wall cut the west edge of the road and was also later than building 5122.
Definition of the building(s) was further complicated by the west end of the complex being truncated by a large EMED pit (1804). It is likely that one building had been replaced by another on the same site. The stratigraphic relationship between the two phases was ambiguous
