Hidden Landscapes: The Romans in the Lake District

The Lake District is celebrated for its dramatic landscape - a place where people can find relaxation, adventure and inspiration. But what is less well known is that for 300 years, it was a frontier of the Roman Empire. Today, English Heritage cares for the remains of three forts - Ambleside, Hardknott and Ravenglass - that guarded a road connecting this area to the rest of the Roman world.
Join English Heritage historian Andrew Roberts as he explores these sites and what they reveal about life on the edge of empire 2,000 years ago.

This video is short and to the point. We visited Hadrian's Wall and two of its well-known fortifications. I would LOVE to know more about the communities introduced here.

So many books have been published on this subject - the local library is your friend . . .

Ravenglass!? And no mention of the Ravenglass & Escadale? I'll have to see if the railway goes near the old ruins there.

So, now it’s out of the grasp of Wordsworth (jk)
