A Roman villa was discovered and excavated at Nunnery Mead in Frampton, Dorset, in 1794, including a mosiac with Gnostic Christian designs and forms. In 1796 Samuel Lysons FRS (1763-1819) undertook a extensive survey, recording the designs. Another survey in 1903 found no trace of them, prompting a local legend that they were looted by troops on their way to Plymouth to sail to the Crimea. However they were rediscovered in 2019 by Bournemouth University dig, televised for BBC4's 'Digging for Britain'.
