One of the most impressive units at the Festival were the Romans. The detail of the uniforms & equipment is fantastic.

The Romans brought their Centurions & Auxiliaries together with half a dozen cavalry & they did a full demonstration in the arena of marching & tactics, together with demos of weapons & their specialist Roman Artillery. The cavalry swords look pretty sharp judging by the way that apple has been sliced in two!

One of the most incongruous sites of the day was when the Romans went up to view the World War I trench. You can see the trench in the background of the shot of the Centurion Officer.
