Hard to believe today is the last day of the season. It feels like room N just wants to keep on going and going. I spent the day cleaning the room in preparation for final photos, but needed to open a new locus in the north corner (96) and explore a little further in locus 65, just beside the small stone alignment (or earlier wall). In the latter area, we didn't reach bedrock and will need to reopen one day. The matrix adjacent to the wall of locus 97 does indeed seem like a floor. Plus, we haven't yet reached the bottom of the wall. The only other part of the room left unfinished was the deep pit-like depression in locus 94, which may be natural. Very low material densities in this area of the locus. Took a few minutes at the end of the day to explore doorways between D and C and between C and A. Between D and C, based on surface architecture there is no trace of an opening on the D side, but a gap in the wall on the C side, where there is the baulk between WSC2 and WSC3. Between C and A, there is the opening in the wall that I vaguely recall exposing in 2005 in the western corner of C. The baulk on this side between WSC and WSC3 is not necessarily a doorway as it is clear from the old trench that the stones of the wall sit beneath the level of the sod. It's impossible to assess the situation between C and A because of the backdirt pile that has created a mound above room A.
As always, the last day of the season is bittersweet.
