Chester Roman Amphitheatre
St John Street, by the Newgate
Address: Little St John Street, Chester CH1 1RE- Culture
- Outdoors
- Free
Stand in the arena of the largest Roman amphitheatre found in Britain, half dug out beside the walls just outside the Newgate.
Why it's a good date: Free, open to wander and a five-minute stop on the way to the river. Read the boards, picture the crowds, then walk through the Roman Gardens next door.
