Yay Colchester! It's a walk-in history museum. Roman walls, a Norman castle, a Saxon church, a siege during the civil war, a priory dissolved by Henry VIII, a Dutch textiles quarter, a Victorian water tower that looks like an elephant. They found a Roman hippodrome recently up by the barracks, although there's nothing really to see. It's the history of England in miniature.
