Context Title: Room 12     
Context Name (Publication): Room 121     
Context Description: Room 12 had a brick pavement, most of which had vanished; in the north corner against the NW wall was a rectangle of mud bricks with two courses of burnt bricks above, 1.75 m. X 0.65 m. X 0.70 m. high, which looks like a bedstead or a bench; on the left of the door, against the jamb, was a brick hinge-socket which lay above the old pavement level but may correspond with a threshold raised 0.25 m. above that pavement; later thresholds came at 1.40 m. and 2.30 m. At one time a door was cut through the SE wall into Paternoster Row, but this was blocked up again soon after.2
