The site comprises the remains of a residential and agricultural complex typical of the Romano-British elite, with evidence of occupation spanning the later Roman period. Physical investigation has revealed structural remains consistent with a high-status dwelling, reflecting the integration of Roman cultural practices into the Gloucestershire landscape during the later imperial centuries. The villa represents an important example of Roman rural settlement in the Severn Vale region, demonstrating the extent of Romanisation in the Cotswolds and surrounding areas during the occupation of Britain.
