Roman Town House
Monday, July 26th, 2010
The Romans arrived on our little island in c. AD43. Since their departure we have slowly and surely been discovering insight into the way they used to live.
A great example of Romano-British urban life is the Roman Town House in Collition Park. Built in c. AD307 it is the only Roman Townhouse visible in Britain and is the best preserved in the country.
Every Wednesday throughout August the Roman Townhouse is opening up to closer inspection.
This uniuque opportunity takes you inside the building’s protective structure and examine the mosaics and hypocaust and find out a little more about this unique site. The Roman Town House will be open from 2.00 to 4.00pm on Wednesday 4th, 11th, 18th and 25th August and again on the 15 September.
Admission is free. Donations welcome.
