About:
Once the defensive wall of Roman Verulamium, the city wall of St Albans can still be traced for most of its two-mile circuit. Its towers and gateway foundations give some indication of the importance of Roman Britain’s third largest town.
The Romans rebuilt the city after Boudicca attacked the first settlement around AD 60, and by the second century Verulamium had a number of stone public buildings including a theatre and a basilica (town hall), as well as a forum – the open space at the heart of the civic and business quarter. St Albans Museum contains a wealth of information about the Roman city.

Dog Friendly:
Dogs on leads are welcome.

Entry Charge:
Free for everyone (see website)

Parking:
There is limited on-street parking close to the wall remains on King Harry Lane or a pay and display car park at Verulamium Museum which is a 10-minute walk away across Verulamium Park on paths.

Facilities:
The Roman Wall is within Verulamium Park and this has various facilities including toilets, a café and children’s play area.

Notes:
The museum is well worth a visit and houses Roman finds from Verulamium, and features superb mosaics and re-created Roman rooms.
