Daily notes about recovery of elements 1992-07-07 rK As excavation proceeded in the SE quadrant, first found ash, then large sherds that extended into the E baulk (and apparently belonged to the same vessel), and then a very large chunk of what seems to be "kiln waste" below the level and to the W of the sherds. There is a clear and obvious pattern in the accumulation and topsoil of very high firing 150 cm from SE corner. Ash and "kiln waste" 60 cm W of E baulk. [Input: C7-1-D.J]
Notes on recovery 1992-07-05 rK more topsoil removed. Appears to have reached brick at the NW corner, that seems to continue the wall A1f76. [Input: C7-1-D.J]
