Context Title: Room 11     
Context Name (Publication): Room 111     
Context Description: Kitchen1     
Context Description: Room 11 had a (late) threshold raised 0.65 m. above the pavement; the floor had disappeared, but there was a drain in front of the door with its intake preserved at floor level. The walls stood to 3.00 m.; in the SE wall and about in its centre a niche 0.25 m. X 0.20 m. X 0.40 m. deep had been cut in the brickwork at 0.30 m. above the original floor. The walls were heavily blackened with soot. Probably this was the kitchen but the destruction of its floor had removed the fittings which constitute real evidence.2
