S21 | Dig 2: Box Flue Tile – 3D Model
Added 2021-11-08 10:34:31 +0000 UTCIt gets colder at this time of year here in the UK and many of us are now starting to put the central heating on. Back in Roman Britain, only the grandest buildings had that option!
One clear indication of a relatively high-status Roman building is the presence of box flue tile fragments from a hypocaust system used to heat rooms. We have a wonderful example to share from this September's dig at the Roman villa in Broughton, Oxfordshire.
As well as an incredible 3D model, we're joined by finds specialist, Rachael Seager Smith in the finds tent, who tells us more...
