WITH the dramatic story Rome featuring on BBC2, the Shuttle/Times and News has teamed up with map-makers Ordnance Survey to give away 10 copies of their map and guide to Roman Britain.
Produced by Ordnance Survey in collaboration with the Ancient Monument Trusts of England, Scotland and Wales, the informative map shows the location of the most important ancient monuments of Roman Britain.
Information on the map includes the Roman roads and place names as well as comprehensive features and illustrations on many aspects of life in the period.
Photographs, showing how many of the sites look today, are also used to give context.
It features the whole of Great Britain on a double-sided sheet and shows the detailed history of Roman Britain against a backdrop of modern Ordnance Survey mapping.
The Roman Britain map and guide joins another in Ordnance Survey's historical map series. The other, called Ancient Britain, shares the same format and style.
They both cost £6.25 and illustrate the geographical distribution of some of the most important visible ancient monuments of Great Britain set against Ordnance Survey 1:625,000 scale mapping.
All the maps are available from all major Ordnance Survey stockists or by ordering direct from Ordnance Survey's online leisure map shop at www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/leisure
For your chance to win a copy of the Roman Britain map, simply answer the following question:
