Painted Roman walls and world’s first rail station put on heritage at risk list

Remains of rare painted Roman walls have been added to the at-risk list (Historic England/PA) -

Rare remains of Roman wall paintings and the world’s first railway station are among the sites added to a list of heritage at risk, an annual update shows.

But there is better news for a market town’s historic centre, an early railway goods shed, a city cemetery and a 1930s lido, which are no longer considered at risk after work to conserve them.
