According to Fiorelli, this shop had a hearth at the rear, together with a passage to the garden of the neighbouring house.

It also had various rooms for the dwelling, or for the use of its industry. 

What ever that was, it cannot now be known with certainty, being as this structure was entirely destroyed.
