Abstract:
The hunting-dog mosaic known since 1913 at Cherhill was re-excavated and identified as a product of Durnovarian mosaicists expanding their operations northwards in c mid-4th century. It was lifted and donated to Devizes Museum for permanent display; D S Neal provides a reconstruction painting. At Manningford Bruce the ?courtyard villa in the graveyard extension is a new discovery with fragments of a fine mosaic with a Central Italian design based on ellipses (reconstructed by Luigi Thompson). The close relationship of church to mosaic at each site needs further investigation.
