A Visitor's Guide
User-friendly guide that sets out a plan of 20 Roman towns, explaining how visitors can find the archaeological sites and what they may expect to see.

From Hadrian’s Wall to Sulis Minerva’s spa at Bath and the public buildings and walled circuits of other towns, Britain has a wealth of Roman urban remains to examine.

Designed for visitors wishing to explore the archaeological landscape, this user-friendly guide sets out a plan of 20 Roman towns – explaining how visitors can find the site and what they may expect to see. Where appropriate, this book explores how the town developed from an Iron Age settlement or where it began life as a military fortress or fort. Written by an expert in the field, each chapter addresses the following:

- An introduction to the history of the settlement, its origins and significance.
- An outline of the main ancient sites and monuments, with concise information on museums.
- Accessible maps of the archaeological features of each town.
- An up-to-date summary of the recent work on each Roman town, supported by further reading.
