The once quiet and peaceful landscape of Northamptonshire was beginning to change as the Iron Age came to a close. The conquest of Britain and the creation of the new Roman province brought with it a new system of administration and governance.
In this presentation Michael Curtis will consider the impact of this change on rural Northamptonshire, how it affected the communities that had settled in this part of the country and how that landscape suddenly became a lot more busier.
