Chedworth Roman Villa is a major site of the Roman period in Britain, one of the largest rural domestic buildings known from the 4th century high point of Romano-British culture. It lies in a particularly beautiful setting which has changed little since Roman times. The site was first excavated in 1864 and bought by the National Trust in 1924.
The Conservation, Management and Maintenance Plan (CMMP) has evolved, from the earlier Conservation Management Plan (CMP), with the Trust's growing experience and understanding of the importance and management needs of the site. The CMMP has also become a tool to help us achieve the level of protection and interpretation the site's undisputed importance deserves.
The CMMP and associated documents and reports are available here to broaden public and professional awareness, involvement and enjoyment of the site.
