The chambers thus uncovered are shown on the small ground- 
plan and indicated by letters, and may be described as follows :— 
Chamber A. was the southernmost in the wing, and was 18} feet 
from east to west by 163 feet from north to south. Its west wall 
and the returns of its north and south walls were the only portions 
that could be uncovered. It had no hypocaust, and no remains of 
its floor were found. 
Chamber B., the next apartment northward, was the same width 
from east to west as chamber A., but 154 feet from north to south. 
Its west and north walls were traced, but there were no remains 
of the floor found, nor had it a hypocaust. 
Chamber C. adjoined the last chamber to the north. It was 94 
feet wide and the same from east to west as the other apartments 
in the wing. Each of the walls were found, but there were no 
_ remains of its flooring. Originally it apparently formed one room 
with chamber II., until the addition of chamber D., when 
chamber II. was cut off to form a passage. 
Chamber D. was 15} feet from north to south by 154 feet wide. 
Fach of its walls was traced, and it had a hypocaust constructed 
with tile pile 8} inches square. The floor was of good quality, 
with small coloured tesserze, of which a number of quite large 
fragments were found, to one of which was attached a complete 
covering tile of the hypocaust. The stoke-hole could not be 
found, but may have been in the south-east angle, which was not 
excavated. 
Chambers E. and F. formed part of a passage-way 94 feet wide 
outside the chief rooms, similar to that on the other sides of the 
villa. 
The whole of this west wing has heen much destroyed by works 
in connection with the medizeval mill, the race of which passed 
over it. All the walls of the southern part had been taken down 
to the bottom course of the footings and a thick layer of lime silt
