A little bit of history.

For those of you that don't know...there's a roman palace in West Sussex! It was discovered in the 1960s when digging began for a water trench. They excavated the site and eventually opened it up to the public.

I'd been a few times as a kid and then took my history-obssessed boyfriend there a few months ago. We both loved it! Inside they map out the history of the site and how it was found. Plenty of interactive stuff to keep the kids interested too. We were particularly lucky on the day we visited as there was a live gladiator show in the grounds...you can find out about their specific events at their website.

Admission is about 7 quid for adults and half that for kids and there's plenty of parking.

Definitely worth a trip especially on a rainy day as most of it's indoors. And with any good museum...there's a great gift shop. I do love a gift shop...
