Lindinis, Roman archaeological site in Ilchester, Somerset, United Kingdom
The archaeological remains at Lindinis span across 30 acres, featuring stone walls, ancient gateways, and the foundations of Roman-era buildings and streets.
During the 1st century AD, Lindinis developed from a timber-walled fort into a substantial Roman settlement protecting the Fosse Way crossing over River Yeo.
Archaeological excavations at Lindinis revealed thirty mosaic floors within private residences, indicating the presence of skilled craftsmen and wealthy inhabitants.
The site connects to modern transport networks and provides research opportunities for archaeologists studying Roman settlement patterns in southwestern Britain.
Lindinis stands as the second walled town in Durotriges territory, constructed with defensive stone fortifications during the mid-4th century.
