Light soiling to edges. ; With plates, illustrations & maps. ; 17.6 x 11.7 x 1.5 cms; Sarn Helen: Walking a Roman Road Through Wales by John Cantrell and Arthur Rylance, published by Cicerone Press in 1992, is a comprehensive guidebook that retraces the route of the ancient Roman road known as Sarn Helen. This road historically connected Caerhun near Conwy in North Wales to Carmarthen in the south, spanning approximately 160 miles. The authors combine historical research with practical walking guidance, drawing upon old manuscripts, legends, ancient place names, and topographical analysis to reconstruct the lost segments of the road. The book is structured into eight stages, each detailing a specific section of the route: Caerhun to Pont Newydd, Pont Newydd to Caer Llugwy, Caer Llugwy to Dolwyddelan, Dolwyddelan to Trawsfynydd, Trawsfynydd to Dolgellau, Dolgellau to Machynlleth, Machynlleth to Trawscoed and Llanio, and finally Llanio to Carmarthen. Each chapter provides clear directions, historical context, and insights into the geographical and cultural landmarks encountered along the way. The guide is particularly valuable for walkers interested in exploring less-travelled paths and gaining a deeper understanding of Wales's Roman heritage. Sarn Helen serves both as a practical walking companion and a historical exploration, appealing to enthusiasts of long-distance hiking and those interested in the rich tapestry of Welsh history.
