Roman legions, horsemen and archers from all over Europe are heading to Wales for an "authentic" living history event. A full-scale Roman wooden fort is taking shape in the Flintshire countryside.
It will be the base for a nine-day festival showing what was life for the people who lived there.
Hosting the event is Park in the Past (PITP), an 120-acre former sand and gravel quarry near Hope. Last October, organisers finally secured planning consent for the wooden fort and already 15% of it has been built by enthusiasts.
