Trust talk on the town wall at the Town Hall

Yesterday (6th December), Trust director Philip Crummy gave a talk to the Friends of Colchester Roman Wall at the Town Hall in Colchester. The talk was about the Roman town wall, with the title of ‘Everything you ever wanted to know about the Roman town wall and more’… Colchester’s famous Roman town wall is the oldest town wall in Britain, and it was built c AD 65-80, after the town was destroyed in the Boudiccan revolt.

The Friends of Colchester Roman Wall are just about to erect the first three of about twelve noticeboards about the town wall around the perimeter of the wall, for example, at East Gate and Balkerne Gate.
