Wall plaster was identified in small quantities from the Period 2 Timber Building 2, including its earliest phase. Colours included red and green, and one fragment with stripes of cream/white, pink and grey. A slightly larger quantity, but still absolutely small, was recovered from Period 4 in association with Masonry Building 3. Colours include red, and red with yellow stripe, as well as green and grey. In neither case was it possible to infer that the plaster had been associated with either period of building.
