- A cement surface over a yellow clay preparation layer. There is associated burning. *Layers of clay and tiles cut into the original floor, burned and covered by another layer of clay and burned again. The shape is rectangular.
- There was no evidence of industrial activity i.e. slag, so could be domestic activity with the burning. *A large and regularly shaped hearth that shows evidence of being used during two phases. First with beaten earth surface 4396 (which was cut for 4112's construction and later with 4395, which is sat upon by the second layer of yellow clay). The construction technique is very similar to that seen in Casale F1. Layers of tiles alternate with layers of a dense, gummy yellow clay. 4112 covers and fills a cut because we excavated it as a single context. Yellow clay definitely covered 4114, but below this layer it had a clearly defined cut that it filled in 4395.
