Monument record TR 15 NW 2034 - Roman Building in Temple Precinct, south of Stour Street

Summary

The remains of a small, rectangular timber-framed building was located on the site. This was possibly one of a number of shrines in the enclosure as well as a major classical temple. The building was built when the enclosure was first laid out and was probably demolished in the 3rd century, at a time when the porticoes also seem to have been partly dismantled and courtyards laid over them.
