Chedworth's famous Roman snails have been out in great numbers this week. They have been sleeping on rocks, hanging out in the pilae room, sliding towards the nymphaeum, and greeting visitors at the entrance to the Villa.

The Changing Room Mosaic at Chedworth is the only floor at Chedworth to have been completely lifted and re-laid on to a modern foundation (1978). As a result the floor is stable and will not collapse into its hypocaust. Monday

The Easter Weekend has arrived. Hop on the trail where you can make mosaics, dress up, race around the chariot arena, enter the puzzle zone, 'fight' a Roman soldier, and so much more. There will also be crafts, historical characters and site guides.

Chedworth may be busy over the Easter Weekend. We have limited parking space following prolonged wet weather and may need to close for short spells during the day to allow the car park to clear. Thank you for your understanding.

The Long Corridor Mosaic at Chedworth was scanned back in 2010. Enjoy this short video showing the quality and detail of one of the longest in situ mosaics in the country.

Spring is definitely here, and Chedworth's famous pìlae (stone pillars that formed part of the underfloor heating system) have emerged from hibernation. The 'socks' help protect the stone from the winter frost.
