Rockbourne Roman Villa Rockbourne Roman Villa was discovered in 1942 by a local farmer and excavated by A. T. Morley Hewitt over the next 30 years. The main structure was a large residence surrounding a courtyard, including luxurious Roman mosaics and bath suites. Its origins lie in the Iron Age and it was occupied until the 5th century.

Mizmaze A mizmaze forms a pattern unlike conventional mazes and is classed as a labyrinth because the path has no junctions or crossings. The pattern appears more like a very long rope, neatly arranged to fill the area.

The original entrance was at the southwestern corner but has been destroyed by the construction of a post-medieval manor house.
