In line with thw E-W robbing trench in 672 and 732. 747 seems to extend slightly under 749 (or rather, more of 749). Many inclusions, mostly consisting of pottery, small stones, and bones, and large tiles. Context 749 comes down upon stones that appear to be a continuation of the structure that 744 came down on, possibly a continuation of the original W-E wall, 747. there stones are in the east side of the context.
