The resddish soil overlies and is interspersed with a tile jumble which at first appeared to be a furnace, 6916, fallen in on itself but after this removal could just be a tile dump. | Context Pottery: | | Fineware. corinthian red slip1 bodysherd. ; Cooking ware. lid2 rims. 1 bodysherd. ; Coarseware. thinwalled beaker2 bodysherds. ; Fineware. preroman7 bodysherds. | Pottery Summary: | | 11 frag(s) 0.07 kg.
