Room 1

Context Title: Room 1     
Context Name (Publication): Room 11     
Context Description: The small front room of No. 8 could not be excavated owing to the threatened collapse of the whole of the SE wall, which stood over 2.50 m. high and was leaning over into the room. The front room of No. 10 was brick-paved and had a central drain; there was no trace of any later and higher floor but in the doorway on the street there was a blocking of burnt brickwork 1.00 m. high; this might of course have been a raised threshold, but might even more probably have been the sill of a shop window. Both the rooms had doors at the back leading into Room 2.2
