TheCaptain visited on 23rd Aug 2019 I particularly liked the Lego model of an Iron Age hillfort situated in front of the Roman Fullerton Mosaic, which was found in the main room of a Romano-British villa in the nearby village of Fullerton. The centre piece to the mosaic is the god Mars in his role as protector of agriculture.

Situated across two floors, the Museum of the Iron Age tells the story of the Danebury hillfort which lies to the south west of Andover. The hillfort was excavated by Professor Barry Cunliffe between 1969 and 1988 and is one of the best-studied sites of the British Iron Age.
