Full Description
Building fronting onto east side of Insula 36. Only the west end of the building was recorded. The back wall was clearly demarcated by a shallow unmortared foundation and the base of a daub wall. The latter had painted plaster in situ on its east face. To the south were three successive ovens (Perhaps this was a kitchen?).<1>
