Just behind the high street in Dorchester are the mosaics at the Roman Town House. The mosaics are wonderfully preserved and the site is free to visit. It's well signposted in the town & easy to find #mosaicmonday

A sample: this military gravestone found by the east gate, exquisite shale cup & bronze box fittings (wood long gone)
