Archaeologists discovered a sarcophagus inside the villa with the skeletal remains of an unknown woman

Unknown, yeah, that's a good bet.

...packed with trophies including coins and boar tusks... The historic Roman structure is the second largest ever discovered in the UK. The foundations measure 85m by 85m (278ft x 278ft) and date back to 99 AD... near Broughton Castle near Banbury, Oxfordshire... The land is owned by the third cousin of actor Ralph Fiennes

Third cousin, that means they have at least one great-great-grandparent in common (1st has at least one grandparent, 2nd has at least one great-grandparent) -- some of my ancestors hailed from quite near there, but that would be much more distant than 3rd.

One of the Time Team episodes dug up a Roman manor that, in its second phase (when the building's orientation was changed 90 degrees), had a corridor over 50 meters long that had sported a mosaic floor through its length. Thanks bitt.

Ride a Cock Horse to Banbury Cross to See a Fine Lady Upon a White Horse
With Rings on Her Fingers
And Bells on Her Toes
She Shall Have Music Wherever She Goes.
