La Trobe-Bateman and Niblett note that there was clearly at least one high-status building on this site. In the east wing the remains of two heated rooms, part of a corridor containing a geometric mosaic, part of a large room containing a geometric mosaic comprising intersecting circles were discovered. In the west wing, another mosaic that likely pertains to a second structure was found. It is possible that a dedication to Sulis by Tiberius Claudius Sollemnis came from this site.
