Record Breakers Challenge at Chedworth Roman Villa

Find out about Chedworth's incredible records and set a few of your own.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

This summer Chedworth Roman Villa will be hosting a record breakers challenge. The Villa holds several impressive records including the longest in-situ mosaic in Britain, the oldest toilet in the National Trust, the only known 5th century mosaic and the first on-site Villa museum in the world. The Villa is even home to Helix Pomatia, the Roman Snail, which is the largest gastropod in Northwest Europe.

Not only will you be able to learn about Chedworth's records, but during the Summer of Play you will get the chance to set your own in Roman inspired games, puzzles and sporting activities.

This event forms part of Chedworth Roman Villa’s centenary celebrations (100 years of being cared for by the National Trust)
