Full Description

Building with two phases (periods c.AD 60-80 and c.80-c.100). The floor in the north-east corner of Site C was burnt and contained several shallow slots (CF168 & CF169). South of the foundation CF219, the only structural feature was the foundation CF238. This appeared to have supported the rear wall of the building and coincided with a wall of CAT Building 19 of period c.AD 150-400.<1>
