The Towns of Roman Britain

A compact, pedagogical survey of Roman urban remains and infrastructure across Britain, offering historical context on pre-Roman contacts and the Roman occupation, descriptions of major towns with their Roman names, discussion of road systems and frontier works including Hadrian's and the Antonine walls, and consideration of cultural influences such as the introduction of Christianity. The work combines maps, site-by-site accounts, and appendices to serve as a field-oriented guide for students and antiquarians seeking to locate, interpret, and trace the physical and institutional legacy of Roman settlement and commerce in Britain.
