Looking at the crumbling ruins of Wroxeter Roman City, you wouldn't think these walls were the fourth largest city, the same size as Pompeii, during Roman Britain. You can delve into Roman history here, exploring the remains of a bathhouse and a reconstructed townhouse and learning about how life once was in the museum.

Wroxeter Roman City is open from 10am - 6pm daily. Adult tickets cost £7.90. More information: english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/wroxeter-roman-city
