Mayor confirms fate of Roman mosaic found in Leicester.
High-status Roman floors discovered by archaeologists during building work will go on permanent display, it has been confirmed.
The mosaics, part of a 1,700-year-old town house, were found on the site of a development in Leicester.
Open days attracted thousands of people but a question mark hung over the fate over the most spectacular finds.

That's good news, and what a beauty that floor is.
I used to have an issue regarding having an inferiority complex, I no longer have an issue with being inferior.

Jewry Wall is undergoing a £7 million re-furb (mostly thanks to a bequest of £1.5million) and will (hopefully!!) become a Heritage Hub for local groups etc.
