Roman warehouse

Categories: Commerce, Romans

The picture source says "Near the Courage Brewery Site archaeologists found the complete wooden floor of a riverside warehouse. Nothing like this has been found anywhere else. The basement would have been cool and so it may have been used for storage of food or drink - it had a ramp at the entrance ideal for rolling barrels."
