Mosaic, Kingsweston Roman Villa

Would it be a Roman villa if it didn't have a mosaic? A large wooden hut covers part of the western end of the complex to protect a set of mosaics - even though they aren't the originals. They are in the Bristol Museum, and these here are from a site in Brislington, south Bristol. See Image] and Image] for more.
