Silchester

Silchester is Small Village in Hampshire.

It also happens to be the remains of an old Roman Fortified Town.

We decided to stop here on the way to Salisbury.

The Morning was fresh but the views were great , 

great colours and mist added just little extra to the screen.

The town was around for many centuries before the Romans arrived. in 30AD.

this is about the time Christ was crucified. 

The wall that were built are at least 6 foot thick and made of flint stone and mortar.

This town was about  10 Hectares in size.

The Grass was very wet and the walk was cold, but it was great start to the day to be somewhere where 2000 years ago, was a major town with activities.

Jennifer was doing well. so we decided that the rest of the day was a go.
