Forum Hatrack River
Roman Leicester’s civic centre was established quickly after the Roman town was built. The first buildings were constructed close to the River Soar in the south west of the town. Initial timber structures were quickly replaced in the late first/ early second century AD with large monumental buildings. Archaeologists believe that one of the first, a large rectangular structure with a hypocaust and side apse was the town’s earliest bath house.
Gradually, the centre grew. By the second century AD, Leicester was equipped with a forum, a basilica, a macullum- the Roman equivalent of a shopping centre and a public bath house. Temples were also established and it is likely that there was an amphitheater provide for the entertainment of the local garrison and population in general.
The Forum
The forum was the hub of life in any Roman town. The administrative and economic centre, it was the centre of governance and the place where business was conducted.
