We enjoyed a very sunny Teddy Bear's picnic on Thursday, the children gathered round for storytelling, counted the bears along the trail. Dressed their bears as Roman bear's and we saw some great mosaics designs. #mosaics #roman #romanvilla #museum

As we enter the final day of the #BigButterflyCount, the Meadow Brown is still firmly in the lead at Brading Roman Villa. What is this butterfly called ?

Mosaics Brading was furnished with exceptionally fine mosaics during the fourth century. The craftsmen who laid the floors in the West Range probably worked from pattern books using materials that were sourced from the Island itself. #Mosaics #Roman #RomanVilla

Cockerel Headed Man Mosaic This mosaic is believed to have been the first one discovered at Brading. Captain Thorp, retired from the army and living locally, had always suspected that there was a Roman site nearby.
