Go Roman And Uncover Ancient History


THEY invaded our shores some 2,000 years ago - and the Romans certainly left their mark. From the south coast - where the legions first landed - they came, saw and conquered. Today, signs of their 400-year stay in Britannia make for excellent places to explore. Youngsters will love getting dressed up as centurions and


gladiators or donning toga’s as they go back in time. Snippets of printed information keep them enthralled,


particularly the bit about Romans using dried mice brains for toothpaste. Kids also have the chance to make their own keepsake mosaic tiles or enjoy a range of fun-filled activities. Tere is also a nature trail where children strap on backpacks and go hunting for bugs and bits. Helpful and informative staff are always on hand with a wealth of knowledge or absorbing audio tours are available. Outside there is an amphitheatre and reconstructed Roman


garden featuring a variety of plants, herbs and flowers likely to have grown at the time. After a dose of history the delightful gift shop and Forum Cafe offers spectacular views out to sea. Te varied menu is filled with interesting and freshly-prepared dishes and refreshments. Car parking is free and the Exhibition and Visitor Centre is fully wheelchair accessible. Brading Roman Villa, Tel. 01983 406223.
