While in Dorchester looking at Thomas Hardy memorabilia, I saw this old Roman town house and its wonderful mosaics:
Last time I saw similar mosaics was in Sicily over 10 years ago now. Just read that this place in Dorchester was discovered in the 1930s during excavation work.
Have also just read that it probably dates back to about the 4th century AD.
Was really nice to be able to just walk round and have a look at the place.
