Roman Britain


I biked to Saint Albans today, and went through Varulamium Park, as I have before. But today I made a point of seeing more of the remains of the Roman walls that once were around the town of Varulamium, which was the third largest city in Roman Britain. I’m a history nut so I found it especially interesting. Enjoy the photos!

That hand-built, stone pavement is amazing. And it's lasted this long!

Why did the Romans call their city Varulamium?
