Plan. The plan is very simple, the interior being
unequally divided by a heavy wall of stone,
in the lower story, The smaller compartment
is transversely divided by two well built
round arches. The upper story seems
to have been undivided.

The rear wall seems to have been
unbroken on the ground floor but the upper
story was provided with small windows.

The end walls are also without openings
and are preserved by the gable of the
pediments.

The upper course consisted of a simple
cornice which is carried over the gables.
Of the front wall the lower story and one
half (the southern) of the upper are
preserved.

The colonnades are preserved only in
one standing column and the antae of the
lower story and one engaged column of
the upper colonnade.
