Viroconium Cornoviorum

Viroconium Cornoviorum, at Wroxeter in Shropshire, England, was the capital of the Cornovii in Roman Britain and one of the largest Roman towns in the province. It grew from a legionary fortress of the mid-1st century CE into a civitas capital with a forum and great public baths. Unlike most Roman towns, it was rebuilt in timber and lived on into the 5th and 6th centuries, possibly as a seat of post-Roman rulers.
