Kings Weston Roman Villa

Kings Weston Roman Villa is located in Lawrence Weston in the north-west of Bristol (grid reference ST533775). Discovered in 1947 during the construction of the post-war housing estate, the site consists of two distinct buildings: a fully excavated eastern building and a partially explored western building located beneath the modern Long Cross road. The ruins of the Roman villa are a Scheduled Monument that represents a winged corridor design common in Roman Britain. It is notable for retaining original mosaic floors, a hypocaust system, and the only Roman bath suite visible in Bristol. Finds from the site, including coinage, jewellery, and human remains, are held by the Bristol Museum & Art Gallery.
