If attending please assemble in the car park at Hill Holt Wood before 4pm. Then a short walk to “Roman Villa corner” of the wood to view the interpretation board there about the villa for some background to the tour.<\/p>

The walk will then be over fields. For the first time since the 1930s the Roman Villa site will be available for a public tour. Please wear sensible and appropriate footwear and clothing for the conditions. The walk is approximately 2.6km\u00a0<\/p>

The walk will take in the Roman villa, the field to the south of the villa, which was the location of 2022’s\u00a0 archaeological excavation of an Iron Age enclosure feature.\u00a0<\/p>

You will learn about the discovery and the excavation of the Roman villa in 1934\/5<\/p>

From there the walk continues down Folly Lane, past where a Wellington Bomber crashed in June 1950.<\/p>

The last part of the tour goes across a large hay field to take in the Iron Age archaeology there, as well as the archaeology surrounding the site looking out to the Fosse Way and Newark from Potter Hill.<\/p>

Potter Hill was made famous by a sketch of William Stukeley, the famous Lincolnshire antiquarian and early archaeologist who in September 1722 drew a sketch of the landscape and described Potter Hill as being the site of a Roman pottery.<\/p>

You will also be able to view from a distance the base of the Lancaster Bomber sculpture being built by the Bomber County Gateway Trust<\/strong><\/a><\/p>

We then return to Hill Holt Wood via the same route<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
