Why visit Lullingstone Roman Villa

Overview

Watling Street was the main Roman road in Britannia, connecting Richborough Fort on the Kent Coast to the site of Londinium. Along this route, several Roman villas were established, including one at Lullingstone near the pleasant village of Eynsford in Kent.

The Lullingstone villa is believed to have been occupied on and off for centuries. It was initially constructed sometime around 80 AD and may have been home to a wealthy Roman or as a country retreat for the governor of Britannia.
