The Roman villa 200 yards north of Acton Scott Hall is a Romano-British settlement site in Shropshire dating to the Roman period. The site comprises structural remains consistent with a villa complex, a characteristic form of agricultural and residential settlement established by Romano-British landowners during the occupation of Britain. The villa's location in the upland margins of Shropshire reflects the pattern of Roman settlement penetration into the Welsh borderlands, an area that remained on the military and economic periphery of the province. Archaeological evidence from the site contributes to understanding rural Romano-British economy and the persistence of settlement in this region during the Roman period.
