NEW ROMAN ROAD CD
AT LAST -
Now you can follow the Roman road from Castleshaw fort in Saddleworth to Slack fort at Outlane, Huddersfield, in great detail.
Sitting at your computer, or on foot, you can follow the route chosen by the Roman surveyors to cross the Pennines and negotiate the steep slopes of the Colne Valley.
Using aerial photographs, maps and photographs of features along the route, you can walk in the footsteps of the legionnaires for much of the way.
