A Guide to the Roman Remains in Britain by R J A Wilson
A handbook to Britain's Roman heritage aimed at the non-specialist reader, and providing comprehensive coverage of the visible remains of Roman Britain. It should also be useful to students seeking an account of excavations and earthworks that remain permanently accessible. More than 250 sites are described in this revised edition, including a dozen new ones, all accompanied by site plans and access details. They range from the Roman bridge at Swainshill to the marching camps at Troutbeck in Cumbria. An additional 120 sites are listed in gazetteer form.
'Far more than a guide, it can be safely recommended to anyone who requires an introduction to Romano-British topography.. It is hard to imagine a better book of this sort' - T.W. Potter, Archaeology * 'This little book has no serious rival. Very high standards of accuracy are maintained' - Malcom Todd, Britannia
Roger Wilson is Professor of Archaeology at University of Nottingham and a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries.
