spectacular mosaics - from a mosaic craftsmaster in Corinium - and hypocaust heating in pretty much the entire house
A friend whose brother used to work with the Corinium Museum in Cirencester says that one of the mosaics has a part missing because someone buried their dog there. (Not sure if that was in Cirencester itself or here at the villa.)

The mosaic workshop wasn't reserved for kids, and it is an interesting experience that leaves you with a lot of respect for the mosaic craftsmen of the time.
