Roman London Tour
This evening, I am reprising a Roman themed tour of London which, during the Roman period was known as Londinium. During the period AD 43-AD 410 large parts of the British Isles mainland were occupied by the Roman Empire. During that time the territory's status was raised to that of a Roman province.

The core of Britain's road network and many of it's towns and cities can be traced back to the Roman period.
