INVASION!

Salve! what better place to start with the Romanisation of Kent than on the beach between Walmer and Deal where Caius Julius Caesar landed in 55BC. There is a commemorative stone laid on 'The Strand' (promenade) between Walmer and Deal. The inscription on the plinth simply says,

"The first Roman Invasion of Britain led by
Julius Caesar landed near here LVBC."

A Personal Project

This is the starting place for my web pages which were inspired by the University of Kent CCS Course on The Romans in Kent. These pages have metamorphosed into a personal project to accompany the course essay. This site contains more than 25 pages and 125 photographs, plans and maps. I may add extra pieces to this site as I visit more Roman sites. My pages start with Caesar and his 'expeditions' to Britain...
