Grand public buildings and opulent villas more often than not steal
the limelight from more mundane structures such as shops and
workshops which, nevertheless, played a vital role in catering for
the needs of Roman Britain. This thesis assesses evidence from
major sites across the country to present a systematic study of the
range of tabernae that have been discovered whilst discussing their
significance for our understanding of local urban economies as well
as the wider Romano-British economy. Drawing on archaeological
evidence from sites in Verulamium, Cirencester, Wroxeter, London,
Caerwent, Vindolanda and elsewhere and, making comparisons with the
well-preserved structures of Pompeii, Herculaneum, Rome and Ostia,
MacMahon examines the construction of tabernae, their plan,
counters, and doorways as well as covered walkways, methods of
selling and display, the economics of tabernae and their location
across Britain.
