Situated on undulating ground near Wymondham, this square temple has been only partly excavated (1966). The outer portico measures 56 feet by 49 feet, the inner cella about 31¼ feet by 28 feet. The walls were an almost-uniform 2½ feet thick, the portico wall, in some places a little thinner. The temple faced east. (Type I)
