Eynsford: Lullinstone Roman Villa Eynsford: Lullinstone Roman Villa English Heritage

Description


Located close to the river on the edge of Eynsford are the remains of a large Roman villa. A series of increasingly grand villa buildings occupied the site for around 300 years up until the Romans left Britain. Over the time the villa housed both a cult room to Roman Deities as well as a Christian chapel, and is one of the earliest examples of Christian worship on Great Britain.

Getting There

From the station walk to the end of the access road and turn left (don't follow the road sign pointing to the villa), walk under the railway bridge and follow the road for a couple of hundred yards before a lane goes off to the right, the lane itself is gated off, but is a public footpath which leads all the way to the site of the villa - total walking time is about 15 minutes (if you follow the road signs the total walk is around 25 minutes)
