Interpretation
-
- Probable collapsed wall, may have been part of F248 but not necessarily, may have just been a jumble of stones seen in the base of F217.

- This rubble collapse may be part of the curvilinear stone structure 2287, which is likely part of the internal structure of the Norman limekiln. It is possible that a symmetrically opposite feature of a similar construction exists to the northern end of F217, but further excavation would be required to prove this. Collectively, these internal 'walls' could have acted as channels for heat to surround the limestone being roasted within.
