1842 Original Art Engraving Worcester Cathedral - North West View AC6
In the modern name of Worcester, the Roman origin of this city is still clearly discernible. Camden says, « Worcester was probably founded by the Romans when they built cities, at proper intervals, on the east side of the river Severn, to check the Britons on the other side of that river. It formerly boasted Roman walls. It has now a tolerably strong wall." It is supposed by some to have been an important Roman station, both from its situation on the Severn, and from the many Roman roads which cross each other at this place.
