About

September's Heritage Open Days will offer the chance to visit Newport Roman Villa free of charge on Friday 6th September (10.30am-2.30pm), providing an opportunity to discover more about life on the Isle of Wight over 1700 years ago.

Discovered when the owners of a nearby house sank new foundations for a garage in 1926, visitors will be able to explore the well-preserved ruins, bath suite and hypocaust of this 3rd century farmhouse as well as enjoying the Roman-inspired garden.

Heritage Open Days is England's largest community led festival of history and culture, involving thousands of local volunteers and organisations.

Every year in September it brings people together to celebrate their heritage, community and history. Stories are told, traditions explored, and histories brought to life. It's your chance to see hidden places and try out new experiences – and it's all FREE.

This event is organised by the Isle of Wight Heritage Service.
