North intervallum

The Phase 2 road surface was uncovered in a number of areas. It consisted of an extensively worn, single layer of cobbles (N04:07, P04:08), which were 0.04m to 0.08m in diameter, well packed and formed a definite horizon below the patches of rubble and stone scatter representing the re-surfacing of Phase 3. It was difficult to define the southern edge of the road as the north edge of the verandah occurred on much the same line as the north edge of the foundation of the Phase 1 north wall. Nevertheless there was evidence in the area to the north of the west entrance to the building, of the new road extending over the line of the former east-west street drain, 2.40m north of the Phase 2 north wall. This would increase the width of the road to 5.50m, from the verandah to the kerb of the rampart. Another area attributable to this phase occurred immediately south of the north-east interval tower, where the road surface (N04:11, P04:09) ran under the kerb which blocked off the tower at the beginning of Phase 3.
