The site 500m east of Woodham Farm is a Romano-British villa complex located in Hampshire, England, representing settlement and agricultural exploitation during the Roman occupation of Britain. The monument comprises three distinct archaeological components: an Iron Age field system, a banjo enclosure characteristic of later prehistoric land division, and a Romano-British villa that reflects the transition and continuity of settlement patterns across the Iron Age to Roman period. The villa itself testifies to the Romanisation of the Hampshire countryside and the development of agricultural estates under Roman administration. The presence of the earlier Iron Age field system and banjo enclosure on the same site demonstrates the long-term use and reorganisation of this landscape for farming and settlement purposes spanning several centuries.
