Two metal-detector enthusiasts have found a 4th Century Roman mosiac near Kemble

A PAIR of Cotswold metal detector enthusiasts believe they have uncovered the biggest Roman mosaic in north west Europe.

They made their discovery on Sunday as they returned from a day?s unsuccessful metal-detecting but noticed the field, which they had covered previously, had been freshly-ploughed.

After noticing several tesserae, which are cubic mosaic tiles, the pair got permission from the landowner to dig a one square foot hole and uncovered the edge of the mosaic.

Paul said they were both thrilled with their 4th Century discovery, which they estimate could be 40-foot in diameter . . . . . . .

One thing about detecting, you learn to look and investigate things even if they don't beep. Sue
