About This Project

Castor Romans is a website created by children from Castor Church of England Primary School, Peterborough, England.

It brings together fun, fact-filled video clips and detailed expert information about the Roman sites around Castor and the surrounding area, once part of the Roman town of Durobrivae.

The project was made possible by the Heritage Lottery Fund, working with local experts, professional directors, scriptwriters and a Professor from Cambridge University, with the children becoming experts in Roman history themselves.
