Littlecote is a Romano-British villa situated near Froxfield in Wiltshire, dating primarily to the fourth century AD. The site is notable for its extensive remains, which include a range of residential and agricultural buildings arranged around courtyards, indicative of a substantial farming estate. Particularly significant is the discovery of a well-preserved mosaic pavement, which demonstrates the wealth and Romanised cultural aspirations of its inhabitants during the later Roman period. The villa represents an important example of late Romano-British domestic architecture and estate organisation in the Wessex region.
