Context Description: | This was a large and important house at the corner of Boundary Street and Niche Lane,opening on the former. The outer walls had from fourteen to twenty courses of burnt brick showing above pavement level, the inner and back walls had only a damp-course of from two to five courses; the building was well preserved except on the NE where it had suffered denudation by being on the line of a wadi cut by the water from the higher ground to the SW. There were two doors opening on the street very close to one another; the second (No. 3) was probably a shop attached to the dwelling-house.2 |
