Chedworth Revealed

From July 2010 we'll be revealing and protecting mosaics at Chedworth Roman Villa. This is part of a major project to improve visitor access and conservation of the historic fabric.
We're taking our time with these excavations to make sure that we share the excitement with as many people as possible. The best way to see the mosaics is at the site, but you can use this blog to follow the action as it happens.
We'd love to know what you think or answer any questions so please leave comments and share your thoughts with the world!




first gentle tickle with a pickaxe :)

I love Chedworth, we'll definitely be going there this summer to see what's going on.

we’ll be back on Monday. In the meantime, here are some mosaic details including where the floor meets the wall. We’re wondering what the reddish spots on the white tesserae could be – any ideas?I think they are paint splashes from a wall painting.. sloppy work! :)



But if you have some ideas... let them know by going here...
