I can describe how many Roman towns in Britain were designed.

Show transcript
The largest settlements built by the Celts were small hillforts. The Ancient Romans introduced towns, connected by roads across Britain. Cirencester (Corinium Dobunnorum) was Roman Britain's second largest town. Towns like Cirencester were designed in grids with the forum in the centre and some had aqueducts. Some big towns like Cirencester had amphitheatres which were used for public entertainment.
