Context Title: No. 6 Paternoster Row     
Context Name (Publication): No. 6 Paternoster Row1     
Context Description: The building closely resembled No. 5 and was probably also a shop; it was divided by cross-walls into three instead of into four rooms. The original threshold was only just above street level; the front wall which was independent of No. 5 but continued as far as the door of No. 9 to the SW had thirteen courses of burnt brick with mud brick above; after the street level had risen considerably the wall was rebuilt and at 2.00 m. above the (old) street three new courses of burnt brick foundation were laid on the top of the old mud brickwork and the wall was carried up in mud brick. The party wall between Nos. 7 and 9 was of mud brick only and did not bond into but abutted on the front wall.2
