Description
An open fronted shelter structure built shortly after the 1860s excavations on the site. The two gable ends at the west and east, and the rear wall (north) are built up with stone to continue the Roman masonry to a double-pitched roof. The roof frame is of wooden beams, the roof itself is of stone tiles. The south side of the shelter is open, and has three wooden pillars supporting it, resting on the southwest and southeast corners and mid-point of the large cold plunge bath. [SNA62028]
Thomas records the reuse of Roman masonry including corbels and two cornices in the walls of the cold plunge bath. [SNA62038]
