Find out about life during the Roman military occupation and visit the period house, with rooms from the 17th century to the 1920’s. The museum's collection of artefacts are well displayed with well written descriptions. Most were found from the site of a major Roman fort. There is an amazing collection of Roman tomb stones which had been used in the later construction of the city walls and consequently re-discovered. These Roman tombstones really bring the people they were dedicated to back to life with little snippets of their lives written in stone.
