Jewry Wall

The Jewry Wall is believed to be the remaining wall of the public baths of Roman Leicester along with foundations of the baths, which are laid out in front of the wall. The wall is nearly 2000 years old and is a rare example of Roman walling. It is the second largest piece of surviving civil Roman building in Britain. The remains of the baths were excavated in the 1930s by Dame Kathleen Kenyon and date from 160 A.D.
