More about this scene

One of the most attractive features of Astle Park was the lake, now almost silted up. When the park was being created at the end of the 18th century, Roman remains were found, and there has always been a suspicion that a Roman road runs through the area, although this idea has never been confirmed. However, from its name, the nearby Pepper Street suggests a Roman route.
