Mysterious 'Winged' Structure Discovered

[Time Turner]

Built around 1,800 years ago, the structure was discovered in Norfolk, in eastern England, just to the south of the ancient town of Venta Icenorum. The structure has two wings radiating out from a rectangular room that in turn leads to a central room.

Would be interesting to know the prevailing wind direction to determine its effectiveness as a wind break for livestock or agricultural needs. Or, could have been the garage for the chariot ; )

Really neat. Too bad it will forever be just another mystery..

Interesting, so I wonder what made the Romans change their rigid architectural design?

[Wordless Wanderer]

So interesting! It'd be so much better seeing it in person.

When I saw "Time Turner" I read "Tina Turner"...

When I think about Tina Turner I think "muscular thighs"

When I saw the drawing... I thought spread out thighs:

I already explained it, Time Turner.

I honestly did read "Tina Turner" when I read your post.

And from then on I got...uhmmm... a bit distracted by the images I had in my mind of Tina Turner.

OK, and sorry if I caused this thread to derail.

Those thighs.....sigh...
