Full Description
{1}A separate building away from the villa was found. It had 2 rooms. "Although nothing was found to indicate the purpose of the buildings-their proximity to the Ise Brook and the absence of accommodation for animals elsewhere on the site could suggest that they had served to house livestock." (Smith p.59)
{2} Little remained of the south-east building. It represents possible stabling. A plain tessellated pavement was found to the west of this building.
