For those with an interest in Roman Britain's culture I think you will enjoy this site. The site is very well maintained and there access to the outer parts of the theatre and the remains of the surrounding shops.Again with so much of things from the past you must engage your imagination to visualise the theatre in use all those centuries ago. There are information boards around the site which provide information also.Access is good for people with limited walking capabilities and users of wheelchairs can see most of the site, (there are steps leading to the upper back of the theatre).The day I visited it was wet so bear this in mind when you come as there isn't trees or places to get away from the weather.
Really amazing ! So well preserved!
Awesome! Such a great place to visit. Easy to navigate and a very short walk.
This is a wonderful historic place, the setting is so quiet and peaceful and the views of the fields surrounding are lovely. It is so clean and tidy and a good fair price to enter here. At some points you are able to get up close to the ruins , the rocks and stones used in constructing this wonderful building. There are benches around this place so you can sit and relax, It takes you back to a different time than we know today and makes you think about how life really was then. There is still some new discoveries here which i never knew about and they are still working of different parts of this site including having just unearthed a row of shops which i found wonderful to see. There is also a underground shrine that looks lovely but you can't go down there just can look from the top. Really enjoyed this visit and made a great day out in St Albans.
I love Roman History, but I found this to be quite underwhelming. Initially, its quite something to step in and around the place where the Romans were, but the ruins were minimal and there wasn't much effort to try and help you get 'into the mood'. There are foundations where some shops used to be, but again, nothing that one would get excited about. A tour would be great and even a reconstruction of a shop would be captivating! As it is, worth a visit if you're in the area, and you can double up the visit with a trip up the very scenic road to the ruins of a beautiful, interesting building once owned by Francis Bacon! That alone is worth going for
