Full Description

Footings representing the north-west corner of a building survived above pit 0024, where some attempt appears to have been made to strengthen the footings within an obvious soft spot. The rest of the building had not survived. The footing comprised a base layer of brick, septaria and limestone (0033), below a layer of loam (0032). This was overlain by another layer of brick and stone (0022), covered in another thin layer of loam (0021). This was then topped with a final layer of brick, rounded pebbles and septaria (0016) below another layer of loam (0015). The latest pottery in the loam layers was LMED including Ipswich Glazed ware sherds, but the building is more likely of LMT date, (S1).
