Bancroft Roman Villa is a Roman villa in the Bancroft district of Milton Keynes in Buckinghamshire, England. Originally a winged-corridor house, the villa eventually became a grand building with mosaics and a formal garden. The principal rooms have been marked out in Bancroft Park and the fish-pond has been reconstructed. One of the mosaics is on display in Central Milton Keynes Shopping Centre. ==History== The first farmhouse was constructed in the late 1st century,〔(Archaeology in the Milton Keynes District - Farmstead ), retrieved 15 May 2012〕 located downhill from where there had previously been an Iron-Age settlement.〔(Archaeology in the Milton Keynes District - Iron Age ), retrieved 15 May 2012〕 In the 2nd century a temple or mausoleum was constructed on the hilltop.
