“Roman Warwickshire” by Dr Paul Grigsby, Friday 10th January 2025, 7.30 pm, village hall

We live only a stone’s throw from the Fosse way, one of the major transport highways of Roman Britain and nearby is Chesterton, rich in the evidence of occupation by the Romans. Here in Lighthorne there have been many finds of Roman artefacts, especially at Hill Farm. This illustrated talk investigates the Roman presence in Warwickshire.
