A pick pass was done in the northern meter of the trench. Little terracotta and pottery is found, as well as some slag. A pick pass of the western meter is done. Some terracotta, ample pottery, bone, and slag is found. Hand picking is done in the eastern half of the northern meter in order to expose the rocks cropping up in that area and to bring the soil level down to that of locus 2 in the original trench. Some baulkwalling is done in the northern wall. A yellowish hard packed soil is coming up in the middle of the western meter.
