Full Description

A clay floor with mortar surface was laid for a 19th century building over the remains of the earlier wall. New wall foundations were established for two walls at the rear. A third wall, possibly an internal partition of the building, was laid on top of the new floor level and reused the former wall as a lower foundation. This second building was demlished in the late 19th century or early 20th century. (1)
