It was a strategic crossing point on the Roman road.
It was built of granite and had a gabled wooden roof, possibly dating from the late Imperial period (3rd-4th centuries AD). There are several theories about its original use, but the most pervasive is that the building was a snow storage facility to supply ice to goods in transit along the road.
