Room 3

Context Title: Room 3     
Context Name (Publication): Room 31     
Context Description: Room 3, a tiny earth-floored booth which may have had a wide window onto Store Street; in the front wall there were only three courses of burnt brick with no mud brick visible upon them, whereas the angle of No. 4 on which the wall abutted rose six courses higher and the SE angle of No. 6 with the south jamb of the front door also rose in burnt brick so that there is no reason why, if the front wall had ever been higher, it should have been ruined down to its present level; the existence of a window like that in No. 14 Paternoster Row cannot be proved but is probable.2
