Blenheim Villa is a Roman villa site located approximately 200 metres north-east of Little Cote in Oxfordshire, dating to the Roman period of occupation in Britain. The villa forms part of a broader landscape of Roman settlement in the region and is associated with an organised field system that reflects the agricultural economy of Roman Britain. The site represents the domestic and economic infrastructure characteristic of Romano-British rural estates, though the specific architectural details and phases of occupation remain subjects of archaeological investigation. Its proximity to Little Cote and integration within a structured field pattern demonstrate the interconnected nature of Roman rural settlement in this part of Oxfordshire.
