If that didn't put you off the Romans for life, there are some magnificent Roman remains to go and visit now the weather's improved at last. Fishburn Roman Palace in West Sussex is a superb example of a site which has been extensively excavated. ——————————————————————————————————1/4—— Save pounds with SupjrScrooge 674 TELETEXT HOLIDAY VIEWER OFFERS p539 Fit Value Flashback What's On

Dating from around AD43, it's thought to have been the home of King Tibjtius Claudius Cogidubnus, a Briton with Roman citizenship. Brit hj may have been but he clearly felt the cold, so don't miss the hypocaust - the ancient Roman central heating system. ——————————————————————————————————2/4—— Save pounds with SupjrScrooge 674 TELETEXT HOLIDAY VIEWER OFFERS p539 Fit Value Flashback What's On

Cajrwent and Cajtleon are two of the most fascinating - and complete - Roman sites in Britain. Cajrwent was the largest civilian settlement in Wales, while Caetleon, a garrison town, has a huge baths complex. Don't miss the Roman Legionary Museum at Caetleon. ——————————————————————————————————3/4—— Save pounds with SupjrScrooge 674 TELETEXT HOLIDAY VIEWER OFFERS p539 Fit Value Flashback What's On

Some of the best sites along the wall - such as Housesteads are a bit of a climb though, so you'll need to be feeling spry. Not feeling like walking? Take the Hadrians Wall bus. There's one each way at weekends and bank holidays, from Carlisle to Vindolanda and from Hexham to Birdoswald. ——————————————————————————————————4/4—— Save pounds with SupjrScrooge 674 TELETEXT HOLIDAY VIEWER OFFERS p539 Fit Value Flashback What's On
