Fishbourne & the Weald and Downland Museum, England

This morning we visited the Fishbourne Roman Palace which was originally built in the 1st century AD. Half of the rectangular palace surrounding a formal garden has been reconstructed. The palace is now a museum with numerous mosaics.


In the afternoon we visited the Weald and Downland Museum, an open air museum which covers 50 acres with nearly 50 historic buildings dating from the thirteenth to nineteenth centuries.
