Don't be fooled by the name - the Roman Gardens is not a garden created by the Romans, but a modern green space where a number of Roman finds from the fortress of Deva have been gathered together for display. Among the finds displayed are stubs of Roman columns, pieces from the legionary headquarters and baths, and a reconstructed hypocaust (underfloor heating system). The site backs onto the old city walls, and you can clearly see the place where Parliamentary cannon forced a breach in the walls during the Civil War siege of Chester.
