| Description: | The context shape in plan is rectrangular. The top break of the cut is sharp. The sides of the cut are vertical. The break at the base of the cut is sharp. The base of the cut is flat. Truncation: at north by cut 678; at south by wall 366. | |
| Notes: | This cut represents the robbing trench of a completely robbed wall. The area was first excavated as context 888 in 2012, but it was never identified as a robbing trench at that point in time. When we returned this year, its shape and orientation suggested that robbing action was responsible, and subsequent excavation of context 1167, a loose, moderately sorted, miscellaneous finds-bearing fill, further indicated the nature of this cut. Because this trench was initially excavated last year, and its sides subsequently removed, the original depth, shape, and break of slope at the top can only be vaguely reconstructed from the notes on 888 recorded in 2012. The bottom of the cut is a very compact soil 'surface' which we initially interpret as a bedding surface for the missing wall. | |
