Introduction

Area OH2 has a number of features attributed to disaggregation. As the area represents the probably collapse and degradation of a nearby building it has numerous features that signal this disturbance.

Brickfall

One feature, f11, was identified as brickfall. It is only a small limited patch and appears to come from somewhere just to the north of the excavated area.

Laminations

The laminations in OH2 were created by water moving nearby materials into the OH2 area over a period of time. The laminations built up on top or each other until they were covered by a thick deposit.
