Roman Canterbury takes us on a journey through time. We start 2,000 years ago with Iron Age settlers who inhabited this area before the Roman Conquest. We are then taken through the development of a prosperous, thriving Roman town and on to its eventual decline some 400 years later. Particular emphasis is given to local archaeological evidence and the book contains a wealth of illustrations, reconstructions and photographs. Roman Canterbury is suited to a wide readership. While it is designed primarily for children, the well-researched material will also appeal to adults with a keen interest in their heritage.
