We opened our present volume with some notice of the walls of the ancient city of Chester, and with a view of the Phoenix Tower, the only relique of the mode adopted by the Romans for the defence of their most important and exposed stations. During the dominion of that people in Britain, this place was termed Caer-leon, or the camp of the legion, being the head-quarters of the twentieth legion, which was honoured with the epithets of Valeria and Victrix. Colonized by the conquerors, and made th
...e residence of so distinguished a portion of their forces, the Roman customs, municipal as well as military, pervaded the structure of the edifices and the fortifications. The four principal streets, from the gates that stand at the cardinal points of' the town, are strictly conformable to the plan continually followed by that warlike people in their encampments. The" Rows also, or Galleries, which are so remarkable in the most ancient streets, for the peculiarity of their construction, are regarded by antiquaries as bear- ing indubitable proofs of their Roman origin : Pennant, in particular, declares that the Rows appear to him to be the same as the ancient vestibules, and a form of build- ing preserved from the time that the city was possessed by the Romans.
