The remains of Britain's only Roman Circus were first glimpsed in 2000, nearly 2000 years after it was built. It was made entirely of stone and tile and could hold at least 3000 spectators. The best places to find out about it are here in Maidenburgh Street, where wall fragments have been uncovered and a wall painting shows how the Circus would have looked, and also at Gosbecks, just outside the town.
