EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Douglas Fairbank LRPS showcases the remarkable remains of Verulamium, located in St Albans, Hertfordshire. Once the third largest city and the only municipium in Roman Britain, this archaeological site holds immense historical significance. The image captures a mesmerizing scene of ancient ruins and fragments that have withstood the test of time. The photograph beautifully portrays the remnants of Verulamium's city wall, constructed with sturdy flint rubble. These weathered stones tell stories from a bygone era, transporting viewers back to Roman times. The intricate details preserved within each fragment are a testament to the architectural prowess and craftsmanship of that period. As one gazes upon this image, it is impossible not to feel a sense of awe at the rich history embedded within these crumbling walls.
