The floor was paved with square bricks and the walls were covered with hydrophobic plaster. Sherds, fragments from glass vessels, a fibula and a coin of Constantius II minted after AD 350 were found in the water conduit. Coins of the 3rd – 6th centuries AD were found along the outer southern side of the water conduit. Part of a street c. 2.50 m was explored.
