A small rocky deposit along the foundation trench 672/673. It is possible that the deposit was cut by the foundation trench. The deposit appears to have been a dump fill as a one-time deposit, rather than a levelling fill. Like 679 above it, perhaps indicating the space was out of use at the time of the dump.
