Here's something you don't see everyday. This is a full-scale recreation of a Roman house (perhaps more accurately villa) located in Wroxter in Great Britain. Wroxeter, or Viroconium Cornoviorum as it was known then, was a center of Roman settlement and now there's a reconstructed house to give a sense of what might have existed there.
Click HERE for more about the reconstruction. It's part of Wroxeter Roman City, an open-air museum.

The house itself...
The house as part of the site...
Long shot of the site.

That's very cool. Looks terribly out of place in Britain - I'm sure those poor immigrants felt like they'd gone to the dreary cold end of the world.
