The mosaic pavement illustrated on plates VII VIII and IX was found in a Roman villa at Newton-St.-Loe, near Bath, in 1837–38. It was taken up and relaid at Keynsham Railway Station; in 1851 it was taken up again for the Bristol Museum, but when the Bristol Institution moved into a new museum in 1871 the pavement remained stored away, and was never shown again. Several removals and neglect reduced it to a mere pile of fragments, so that the late Professor F. J. Haverfield, writing about 1906, said that it had perished. In 1930–32 it was, however, brought to light. Plates VIII and IX show pieces assembled on a floor awaiting restoration. The site of the villa, which is of an ordinary corridor type (fig. 4), is just outside, and to the west of, Bath, within a few yards to the east of the bridge carrying the main road to Bristol across the Great Western Railway. Most of it was cut away by the railway, but the site of the outbuilding is said to be marked by the broken surface of the south slope of the railway cutting. There are as yet no modern structures at the place. The pavement has frequently been wrongly called after Keynsham or Saltford.
