Dr. Sutherland published the plan of the bath with this description having "_drawen_ out in dotted lines" the supposed arrangement of the baths. To make the account of these discoveries of 1755 complete, I must explain that the _Hypocausta Laconica_, or stoves, to the eastward, which he described as each measuring 39ft. by 22ft., were, I believe, the _tepidarium_ and the _caldarium_. The two semi-circular recesses, or small rooms, to the north, I should consider were each a _sudatorium_ if the floors had not been 2ft. 6in. lower than the adjoining apartment. In the centre was the stove by which the system was heated (the _praefurnium_). To the north of these, Dr. Sutherland figures, in dotted lines, three chambers omitted in my plan. Although I believe he had some authority for giving them, I am somewhat at a loss to assign a use to these rooms. They might be stoves, as, if the Romans desired to have a bath artificially heated, this would be the correct position for the brazen vessels, described somewhat unintelligibly by Vitruvius, as three in number. If this was the case, each semi-circular recess just described was a _calda lavatio, balneum or labrum_. [A similar _labrum_, but of smaller scale, was discovered at Box, near Bath, last year, and I have discovered on the property of Mr. Charles I. Elton, F.S.A., M.P. (author of "Origins of History") a similar one.] The floor being 2ft. 6in. lower than the adjoining apartment points to this belief. These, I have little doubt, were those artificially heated baths, and were cased either with lead, stone, marble, or small white tesseræ, as at Box. To the south of the _tepidarium_, Dr. Sutherland gives a precisely similar suggested plan as that to the north, but here again I have not copied him, believing he had not sufficient data. In all probability here was an _apodyterium_ (which might or might not be heated with a _hypocaust_) where the bathers deposited their clothes. Dr. Sutherland thought that to the east of the discoveries which he described there would be found probably at some future day "similar _Balnea pensilia_."[9] In opening the Roman drains I found a branch one at this place, which induces me to think that a large cold or swimming bath occupied the eastern wing, the _baptisterium_ or _frigida lavatio_. Still farther eastward are fragments of Roman buildings which I have seen only in a very fragmentary way, as no excavations of any extent have been made. I believe the apartments necessary to complete the system of the modern Turkish bath, or rather the ancient bath, with the requisite waiting rooms and corridors, stood there. [Footnote 9: These baths and adjoining rooms occupied the block between Church Street and York Street, including Kingston Buildings.]
