Ave Civitas,
I will be visiting Britain in the middle of March.
I am writing a novel set during the last years of Constantine I and those who followed him.
I want to gather as much information about what it was like to be a Roman Soldier and what it was like to be a Roman Citizen during that period.
I hope to walk and touch and taste as much Roman and Native Britain as I can during my week there.
So, I have questions which I hope someone can help with.
1. Where would be the best places to visit for a one-day stop?
2. Without using an auto, what is the best (cheapest - most comfortable - most dependable ) mode of moving from one place in Britain to another?
3. Staying in a One or two star hotel and eating frugally, what can I expect to spend per day (and are weekends different from week days)?
Thanks a lot. I do appreciate your help.
Tom,
PS. What is the best beer?
