Summary edit

Description The Roman City walls were constructed around AD 275. They were built over a previous earthwork defence, which had never been completed. The wall was over 3 m (10 ft) thick at foundation level and over 2 m (7 ft) thick higher up. It was built from flint, brick, flint rubble and mortar. Today the original facing of squared flints has gone and what can be seen is in fact the core of the wall. In total, the completed wall measured 3.6 km (2 1/4 miles) and enclosed an area of 82 ha. (203 acres).
