Cardiff

Well-preserved oval mound that once hosted gladiatorial combat and military processions. This amphitheater was built for the Roman forces at Isca around AD 90 and would have seated around 6000 spectators!
Imagine standing here nearly 2000 years ago, preparing to enter a stadium filled with 6000 spectators!  Maybe you were parading after a successful military campaign, or perhaps you were here to fight for your life in gladiatorial combat.  Either way, it was a big moment in your life!

North side of Caerleon War Memorial. Now located in the Memorial Garden near the town hall, the War Memorial was erected in 1921 in the square at the junction of High Street and Cross Street. It was relocated here in 1966.

A grand but tired hotel but adequate for price point. Mattresses too soft and uncomfortable and rooms overheated. Decent breakfast for price. An excellent location though….easy walking distance to the station and Cardiff amenities.
