Description:   Top slope of the context is level. Bottom slope of the context is level. The soil color is light yellowish brown. The soil compaction is loose. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   After the removal of B5120, there appeared to be a difference in the underlying fill some of which was roughly aligned with where a robbing trench would be expected based on the known RT (B5094) and the alignment of the crosswall in the room north of Room F,W and an exposed stone in the RT of W19 (NB228). A cutting became apparent on the eastern side of the basket, but not on the western side as far as had been cleared by B5120. Excavation was stopped to allow for a cleaning pass over the western area of Room F.
