The North Leigh Roman Villa is considered to be one of the larger villas of Roman Britain. It was at its most extensive in the early 4th century, when it included three bath suites, 16 mosaic floors and 11 rooms with under-floor heating. The most important feature of the site is a fine mosaic tile floor dating to the early 4th century.

The volunteer group’s members come from numerous backgrounds and offer a range of skills and specialisations in working with English Heritage to improve the villa site. The volunteers open the mosaic room on various weekend days during the summer and can also open the site for other groups such as walking groups and local schools at other times.
