Description
The structure is a retaining wall and steps located to the east of the Bathing House, dating from the mid-19th century. It is constructed of squared stone with cut dressings and reaches a height of up to 6 metres, featuring arched coping along the top. Near the northern end, there is a flight of stone steps that descends the inner face of the wall, leading to a square-headed door. From this door, worn rock-cut steps continue down to a small square bathing pool that has been carved into the rock.
