1800 years after they were first built, the Roman walls of Noviomagus Reginorum remain largely in place. A few gaps in the wall have been created - mostly at traffic points north, east, south and west of the city where old stone gateways have been removed – but the majority of the wall remains available to walk, guided by a tree-lined trail.
The Cathedral is positioned in the south-west corner of the encircling wall but as befits a bustling, busy city, there are points of interest in all four corners.
