The weather is improving and cyclists are out in force. Chedworth Roman Villa is a great spot for a coffee or lunch break while out on a ride.

Disappointing service from @McDonaldsUK and their delivery today! Outright lied about being at the delivery point and then simply disappeared from contact. Claimed to have delivered the food so you won’t give me my money. No food, no contact, lies and taken my money anyway.
Free Tour Mondays start this Monday. Come and learn all about the Villa's history and significance. Full details here... https://t.co/2Rgcaju6SZ

Thumbs up from our Ranger team and volunteers who are removing old matting and replacing the turf on the North Range. The area in the photograph will be cordoned off while the new grass establishes itself.
Browsing in the archive we found this wonderful aerial shot of Chedworth Roman Villa. Looks closely and you will see the excavations that happened on the North Range a few years ago. #Archaeology#excavations#romanempire
Replica of one of the three altars found at a Chedworth believed to be dedicated to Mars Lenus. Mars was the Roman god of war while Lenus was a native war god from modern day Germany. Families will be able to 'sculpt' altar like these during #halfterm#finds#findsfriday
Our Welcome team has been testing out the new 'Fresco' experience for some #halftermfun. This will be one of five activity stations for families to try from 21-29 October. Come on down to the Villa and celebrate Roman craftsmanship with us. #craftsmanship#crafts#romanempire
There's something wonderful about this shot from Chedworth's 'Big Dig' in 2016. A mosaic emerging from beneath the turf surrounded by the tools of the trade. It exudes the excitement of being an archaeologist #MosaicMonday#mosaics#archaeology
We love this one from our conservation team for #mosaicmonday. Triclinium mosaic figure. Look at the detail on the leg especially the toes. Note the repair work from an unknown time near the shin. #Mosaic
Anyone up for some hoop rolling? Popular in Roman times and still going strong today. This is one of the activities on the Roman Fitness Circuit at Chedworth during the #summerholidays
