Life as a Roman Legionary

25 July 2024 @ 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM BST

Free – £5.00

A real one off event. Meet Steve Welsh, whose personal passion for Roman history has seen him literally walk the talk crossing Hadrian’s Wall in his Roman regalia.

Steve Welsh has long been interested in Roman history. Born in the north east of England he spent many a happy hour exploring Hadrian’s Wall and reading about Roman military and political history.

He has lived in the Calder Valley for the last forty years and has held many ‘Roman Days’ in junior and infant schools. Over the years he’s managed to acquire a full set of Roman armour and on the year of his 60th birthday, fulfilled an ambition to walk the length of Hadrian’s Wall dressed as a Roman legionary.
