temple or other building. Through this solid bed, shafts 

 had been sunk for cess-pits in more recent times. One of 

 these was forced to the depth of 4 ft. through the solid bed. 

 Later on the south wall of the same building was brought 

 to light, but only one course of very large stones, of which 

 the lower part had been built, remained. One stone was more 

 than 5 ft. long, and had a sawn face. Another wall, parallel 

 to this, seems to have run parallel to the present street. 



Close to the south wall of the building, at a depth of 

 16 ft., a beautiful piece of embossed glass, and at 15 ft. a 

 large fragment of window glass were exhumed, the latter 

 perfectly iridescent. Near these, besides other pieces of 

 glass, the bronze head of a spear, a fragment of pottery, and 

 part of an amphora were obtained. At the level of the bed 

 of concrete a few coins were secured : a brass of Marcus. 

 Agrippa, B.C. 27-12 ; another brass of Antonia, daughter of 

 Mark Antony, and wife of Claudius, struck in the reign of 

 Claudius, and several small coins of the Constantino family ; 

 also a coin of Antoninus Pius, on the reverse Britannia 

 seated on a rock, a.d. 150, and one of Constantius, the son 

 of Constantine the Great.
