A TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR'An absolute joy to read and an early contender for every list of History Books of the Year' Sunday Telegraph'On nearly every page a random passage takes one's breath away' The TimesHave you ever heard the march of legions on a lonely country road? For two thousand years, the roads the Romans built have determined the flow of ideas and folktales, where battles were fought and where pilgrims trod. Almost everyone in Britain lives close to a Roman road, if only we knew where to look.In the beginning was Watling Street, the first road scored on the land when the invading Romans arrived on a cold and alien Kentish shore in 43 CE. Campaign roads rolled out to all points of the compass, forcing their way inland and as the Britons fell back, the roads pursued them relentlessly, carrying troops, supplies and military despatches. In the years of fighting that followed, as the legions pushed onwards across what is now England, into Wales and north into Scotland in search

Book, Hardcover Stewart Gillies, Pamela Taylor Published in: 1993 Publisher: Phillimore Language: English a pictorial historyHendon, famous for its aerodrome and police college, was an ancient and large manor and parish. Before that it was a Roman settlement with Watling Street forming much of its western boundary. In the Middle Ages it was a Westminster Abbey manor recorded in Domesday Book. It was an area of small hamlets scattered among woodland which was gradually cleared for the production of hay for the London horse population. The first real signs of growth, however, came not with the aerodrome but with the extension of the Underground Railway, which brought really rapid change.

Gravesend & Northfleet Revisited : The History Press : 9780752450438 : 0752450433 : 15 Jun 2009 : During the last 100 years or so Gravesend has grown from a small community with a population of 22,000 in 1881, to the present Borough of Gravesham with a population of over 90,000. Robert H. Hiscock's book illustrates this development, as a small but busy waterside town, depending on the Thames for much of its wealth, grew into a vast commercial and residential area, with many of its inhabitants commuting to London and elsewhere, providing a shopping centre for the now much enlarges Gravesham. The photographs are taken from the area covered by the old Borough of Gravesend from its incorporation in 1672 to 1935. They are divided into four main sections: the Riverside; the Main Road from the Lion Garage; the Old Road; and Watling street. This book provides us with a fascinating collection of old photographs from this interesting and much changed region of Kent.

Secret St Albans : Amberley Publishing : 9781445690735 : 144569073X : 15 May 2021 : St Albans has a long and fascinating history from its pre-Roman settlement as Verlamion, through the Roman municipium of Verulamium, the Benedictine monastery dedicated to Alban, the first British Christian martyr, to the charter borough and market created by Edward VI in 1553 and the city designated by royal edict in 1877. The town's location on the ancient Watling Street linking London with the Midlands and the North West has ensured its significance in each of these periods.  In this book, local author Kate Morris portrays episodes in the social life of the charter borough and market, when the town gained in popularity with City merchants and professional folk, often as their 'second home'. Morris reveals lesser-known events and characters of the Early Modern period of the town's history. Some of the tales and happenings revealed are not untypical of those in other English towns, but their telling in
