A Roman villa unearthed on a building site has been described as potentially "the first of its kind" ever found.
The remains of the large "stately home" and bath house were found on a site in Scarborough, in North Yorkshire.
Historic England said the type of layout has "never been seen in Britain" and may be the first example "within the whole former Roman Empire".

I think this is a pretty cool discovery. Looks like it was for someone that was high society and rich for the time.
