- This linear wall running approximately E-W possibly represents the northern wall of the Eastern flue for the limekiln F217. The stones here are very heat affected indicating use as part of the industrial process of creating lime, probably the fire from a flue/stoke hole

- Update from 2022 season: Upon further investigation it now appears that this linear alignment of stones may represent an internal partition wall to a structure associated with a much earlier phase of occupation than originally thought. Certainly, it now appears very unlikely that these stones are related in any way to an eastern flue of the later Norman limekiln. The stones (made of sandstone) were infact not burnt at all, simply in a state of natural degradation.
