The irregular angle suggests that it was not well-constructed and possibly a later addition to the entry-way: either a door stop or a stepping stone up to a high lintel or low floor. The angle also seems to account for the fact there is an extra stone at the north, connecting the line of these stones back up with the wall there, as they are at the S. | Context Pottery: | | Fineware. plain glazed, unslipped (800-1100), bowl. 1 rim. ; Fineware.
