Remarks:

Small cobbles & many pebbles embedded in the top of the surface; sealing against & sloping up to Wall 5; a few large cobbles protrude through the surface; these are part of underlying features, not part of the tumble which was lying on top; slopes steeply in many directions, thus may have sunk or sagged since antiquity
