Wroxeter Roman Vineyard
Wroxeter nr SHREWSBURY Shropshire
|
Wroxeter is a 6 acre vineyard situated amongst the ruins of the Roman town of
Wroxeter near Shrewsbury. In 1991 5 varieties of vine were planted on a 6 acre sandy plateau. Two of these varieties are for red wine. Through the vineyard are paths that allow visitors to view the Wild flower meadow which includes the site of a Roman spring. Over the vineyard walls (or fosse) are the remains of the city of VIROCONIUM , home of the crack 14th legion. There is also a flock of Balwen sheep - a rare breed with distinctive black and white features. |
