VII.16.6 Pompeii. September 2004. Looking north across workshop, at the rear was a doorway into VII.16.9.
According to Eschebach, the doorway on the left would have led into a small room under the steps at VII.16.5.
At the rear on the left would have been stairs to the upper mezzanine, with a latrine beneath.
In the workshop were two dolia, three mortars, and two or three mills.

According to Fiorelli –
“Area servita forse altra volta per contenere le macine
di un pistrino, che vi si trovava alle spalle.”
(translation:
Area used perhaps at another time to contain the mill-stones of a small bakery,
that one could see at the rear.”
