Description: | Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is dark reddish black. The soil compaction is hard. The soil is poorly sorted. It is silty sand. | |
Notes: | 433: A hard dark reddish brown silty sand with many inclusions of rounded pebbles, tile, ceramic, bone, and carbon. This is one of two patches of floor at the N baulk, truncated buy the 1936 excav. The floors are probably the same but perhaps 425, to the S, is a bit softer than this patch to the N. Beneath is a dark layer with fewer inclusions and a lesser amount of rounded pebbles that is very firm to hard and darker with more sand than the soil to the E. | |
