Context Title: Room 8     
Context Name (Publication): Room 81     
Context Description: Room 8, probably a servant's room, gave access from the kitchen, Room 9, via Room 7 to the reception room and to the chapel. The lower burnt brick pavement was here well preserved, regularly laid with bricks measuring 0.27 X 0.18 X 0.07 m. As was shown by the bonding in Room 7 the deep burnt-brick foundations of the SW boundary wall were contemporary with five courses of mud brick in the adjacent walls, but all the mud brick-work below this level belonged to the earlier foundations with which was associated the well laid brick pavement noted above.2
