Abstract: |
A detailed Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) survey was conducted over the mosaic pavements in the audience chamber and dining room at Lullingstone Roman villa, Eynsford, Kent (TQ 530 651, SMR 1007463). The aim of the survey was to investigate irregularities identified in the mosaic surround that suggest these rooms may have been remodelled from an earlier, unrecognised, phase of construction. A number of linear anomalies were identified by the survey, related to both the predicted course of building remains projected from adjacent rooms and possible wall footings that correlate with the observed alteration to the overlying mosaic. In addition, some near-surface areas of anomalous response may well be related to localised delamination of the constituent tesserae. |
