- Eh? Where are the roads? This is rubbish.
- Oink. I love mud
- Yuck. I've got muddy toes.
- First my sandals, then my chariot!
- When the Romans arrived in Britain, there were no proper roads.
- I'm stuck. MUMMY!!!
- There were some roads, but they were just mud tracks.
- Zzzzz
- Chester
- I'm soooo tired
- York
- Lincoln
- The chariots got stuck in the mud.
- I know! Let's build some roads!!!
- Even the army got stuck in mud!
- This is my groma. It's great for checking stuff is level.
- It took too long to walk from city to city without roads
- Exeter
- London
- The Roman Army started to build roads across Britain.
- flint
- PIG???
- First a surveyor used a groma to make sure the land was level.
- Where's all the mud?
- The soldiers built a bank called an agger. The road was laid on top.
- Flint, gravel and stone slabs were laid on the agger in a thick layer.
- stone slabs
- gravel
- Humph. Tell me about it.
- These drainage ditches take forever to dig!
- This is the life!
- Poor pig
- The Romans have stolen my mud. BOO HOO!!
- The soldiers dug drainage ditches around the sides of the road. Then the road was finished.
- Now the armies could easily march from city to city.
- GGRRR! You are dead meat!!!
- It made pigs very sad.
- What a waste of time
- The Romans built their roads as straight as possible.
- Build it straight over that hill!
- Winding roads are stupid!
- Bandits and robbers could be hiding around bends.
- These roads are built to last for 2000 years.
- MUMMY!!!!
- Winding roads meant it took longer to get to the place you wanted to go.
- How did those clever Romans know what to do???
- I'm a speedy pig!
- Roman roads even went straight up hills, rather than around.
- WHAT??
- Roman roads were built properly and some are still around today!
- Bye now!
- But when the Romans left, the British didn't know how to mend the roads.
- Let's use these mud tracks instead!
- Hurray! Lots of mud again!
- I LOVE MUD!
- But Roman roads were well made so some are still around today.
- The Romans didn't like the muddy tracks in Britain.
- When the Romans left, the British didn't know how to fix the roads so they used muddy tracks again.
- OINK!
- So they made lots of very straight roads to march along.
- So the British ignored the roads and used muddy tracks again.
- Mud's the best. Remember that!
- So there were no proper roads any more but at least the pig was happy!
- This story is all about me (kind of)
- HEY! What about us?
