Unit description: A small unit with few IDs, consisting mainly of 003 size long bone shaft fragments, some of 007, a few rib fragments and couple of teeth (one cattle). Small amount of burning, surfaces are matte and with plastery film, weathering fair-moderate, edges sharp and [cut off in data transfer!] Sample 2 >4mm flotation 100% sorted, recorded completely. Smallish sample consisting mostly of small crumbles of scrap; no diagnostics. Rather weathered and worn to varying degrees; looks kicked around. Nearly all sheep-size. Little burning, no gnawing, a little digestion. No sense of coherence. One little bit each of fish and microfauna. Looks like dirty floor, with perhaps a bit of fill. Last number = 51
