Her latest book Journey to Britannia\, from the Heart of Rome to Hadrian’s Wall AD130 (Head of Zeus) came out in paperback in March 2022 and will form the content of her lecture when she transports us back to trace the route of a newly appointed governor of Britain and his team from Rome to Hadrian’s Wall at the time of the emperor Hadrian. We will travel across borders\, countries and civilisations\, and we hope Bronwen\, a fellow Lancastrian\, will enjoy her own trip to the Lytham St Annes seaside!
