Triangular
A structure has been found in some Roman ruins in Norfolk that "has no known parallels."
Professor William Bowden from the University of Nottingham and the Norfolk Archaeological and Historical Research Group, have uncovered a strange ‘winged’ formation of rooms near the ancient town of Venta Icenorum, or modern-day Caistor St Edmund.
It was built around 1,800 years ago and the researchers believe that it’s totally unique.

Unusual, yes, but not unique, not even for Roman Britain. A triangular temple, assuming it was in fact a temple, was excavated at Veralamium by modern St. Albans in 1933.
I expect the design has more to do with street planning than anything else.
