Room 2

Context Title: Room 2     
Context Name (Publication): Room 21     
Context Description: Central Court1     
Context Description: In the east corner a door led to Room 2, a large paved court against the SE wall of which was a rough rectangular fire-place made with an edging of bricks set on end; there had once been a door in the SW wall which was blocked by the south jamb of the existing SE door but the wall in which that door occurred was quite early in the history of the building although not bonded into the NE wall (the outer wall of the chapel of No. 1 Old Street). At a much later period the court was divided by an L-shaped mud-brick wall whose foundations were 0.5 m. above the pavement.2
