Nice place to walk the dog. Appreciated the signs with illustrations and history although it is essentially a few large flat areas with some white painted shapes on the grass.

A cool site to visit, and very nice for walking the dog. There is a track that leads off from the main site that goes on for a good distance.

If you enjoy the thought of being immersed in history of what was before, and can use your imagination, you'll love visiting here, as I do! :)

This place is fantastic, wide open spaces, free parking, and no entry charges. Dogs allowed off lead.

Gosbecks Iron Age and Romano-British site
The site of a large Late Iron Age farmstead, thought to be the centre of the Celtic oppidum of Camulodunum, capital of the Trinovantes and later the Catuvelauni. The Romans built a small fort near the farmstead, which sits next to Grymes Dyke, a large 3 mile long ditch and bank earthwork which formed part of the defenses of Camulodunum. This can be easily accessed by footpaths from Gosbecks, and it's full length can be walked. In places the ditch and bank survive to considerable height. The countryside around the area is very beautiful. The positions of a Roman temple and theatre (the largest Roman theatre in Britain) are marked out in the grass.
