If you’re wondering what to do when you visit the Roman Amphitheatre site, here’s a route suggested by Mr Hosken of Siddington, Cirencester.

Mr Hosken’s virtual guided tour around the Amphitheatre complex includes images and text from the information boards on site, allowing you to explore the site from the comfort of your own home, if you’re not able to actually visit the site.
