Wroxeter Roman City

We visited the remains of the Roman City of Wroxeter. we were able to explore the bath houses and learn about how the Romans kept clean and healthy and why this was so important to them. We acted as if we were Romans visiting the baths, learning that we needed to pay someone to watch our clothes and prevent them from being stolen. We learned how to use a 'strigil' to scrap the dirt off our skins. We went into each of the rooms of the bath house and even saw the mark left by the builder of the baths. We also saw the Roman toilets - we are not sure we would have liked to have had to have used them!

 

We were also able to explore a reconstruction of a Roman town-house and find out about what it might have been like to live as a Romano-Briton.

 

We also visited the museum to look at some of the artefacts that archaeologists have discovered that help us know about everyday life in Roman Britain.
