Episode 1
When the Romans invaded Britain nearly 2000 years ago they needed to march armies long distances to keep order and to do so they needed a road network fit for purpose. Dan Jones travels the length of their first project, the 240 mile long Watling Street, which ran from the Kent coast to Wroxeter in Shropshire. Building started at Richborough in Kent where the Romans landed in AD43.
