Newport Arch
The Romans established a Legionary fortress in Lincoln, then known as Lindum Colonia. It had many of typical features associated with Roman rule, including public baths, temples and a forum. There are a few remains from this period in the city, the best is Newport Arch. Built in the 3rd century AD, it served as the northern entrance to the city right through to the Middle Ages. Now Grade-I listed, over the past century or so a number of trucks attempting to pass through the arch have caused damage.
