Remarks:

Plaster lining on outside of red bricky material. One actual brick (dark red) in furthest NE corner, perhaps reused in oven construction? Rest looks like mud or soft mudbrick lined on top of a semi-circle of stones against Wall 79. L.90 Pail 313 was excavated in Loc.11 above oven before realized oven below, probably contained collapsed superstructure of oven.
