Late Romans- Saxon Shore Forts Tour with Dr B!

Just seen this

Saxon Shore Forts (2008)
Britain
Another chance to investigate one of the frontiers of Roman Britain with military expert (and great travelling companion) Mike Bishop. The late Roman forts built along the south-east coast from the Wash to Southampton (the sea facing Saxony) were designed to defend Britain against Saxon attack and piratical raids, and to protect official shipping routes. They are also some of the most substantial remains of the period, in dramatic coastal settings. There will also be time to explore Roman Colchester, Chichester and Dover, and Bignor Roman Villa.

Not cheap though!

Looking at the Andante Itinerary for this tour in my brochure, I could possibly meet him at the site of Walton Castle in my late Roman kit, seeing as I only live 500 metres from the place!
