Compact horizontal layer which seems to be strongly linked to structure with walls 5010, 5008, 5009, which create boundaries to the layer on its N, W, and E sides. The S edge appears to have been truncated through erosion. This layer appears to represent a walking-surface linked with the structure, although it can't be linked exclusively with either the construction phase, or occupation phase or abandonment/spoliation phase of the structure. Noteworthy is that mortar inclusions within the layer were of an identical form of mortar bonding walls 5008, 5141, and 5010, possibly linking 5091 with the construction and/or spoliation phases of the structure. However, no sign whatsoever could be found of a pavement linked to the occupation phase of the structure.
