- Wall or pilaster extending a half meter into the trench running south from the north section. Consists of two phases with an upper portion of reticulate masonry with cubiliae of 6.0-8.1 cm in height. This construction extends for a height of .66 m and is .47 m wide. The lower construction is offset 7 cm on the east face. It is built of rectangular tuff blocks set into mortar and then faced with a thick gray-white plaster. The upper phase preserves 3 coats of plaster on the south and west faces. The outermost coat of plaster joins that on the south face of SU 6068.
- On north face in the plaster finish is a dimple as if something lay against the wet plaster; it is 2.0 cm in diameter. Under the plaster on the south face, the wall appears to have been broken previous to the application of the plaster, and it may have originally extended to SU 6090.
