According to Mau, this was described as number 9 of IX.6 and was a shop.

In the corner to the left of the entrance was a cupboard (or small area), divided from the rest of the shop by a partition.

On the walls of it – but not on the most recent road wall – were preserved remains of 1st style decoration: a red zoccolo (plinth), a little sunk in relation to the white surface of the upper wall.
