Chedworth Roman Villa, located near Chedworth, Gloucestershire, is a scheduled monument and one of the largest and most elaborate Roman villas discovered in Britain[1]. Built in phases from the early 2nd century to the 5th century AD, it represents one of the latest occupied Roman villas in Britain[1]. The 4th-century reconstruction created an elite courtyard dwelling featuring a heated west wing with a triclinium (dining room) adorned with a fine mosaic floor[1]. The complex also contained two separate bathing suites—one for damp-heat and one for dry-heat—demonstrating the owner's wealth and Roman cultural adoption[1].
