Temple Or Shrine
This small, square temple lies on the edge of the Fens. The portico wall was about 26 feet square, the inner cella measured about 10 by 9 feet and was defined by the brick bases of four posts, the charred remains of one such roof-support, measuring 9 feet in length, was found on the floor. The temple probably faced east. Originally built in the 2nd century, a new floor was added in the late-3rd. This temple was burned to the ground and another new floor was laid in the mid-4th century, but the temple had fallen into disuse by the late-4th. (Type Ie, or IIe)
