On the s. periphery of the site was noticed a brick kiln, 1·60 m in length and 30 cm in breadth, having its longer side in the e.-w. direction. The kiln was made by cutting of a hollow pit with its sides and bottom plastered with clay mixed with straw, the thickness of sides being 50 to 80 cm. The plastered surface later got burnt when the kiln was in use. A similar kiln with its upper portion completely missing was also noticed near by. From this were recovered a fragmentary terracotta figurine and a cart-wheel with a central hub.
