The Ancient Foundations of York & Townwall Street
Long before motor vehicles and modern conveniences, the area now known as York and Townwall Street was a strategic nexus in the triangle of Europe’s greatest gateways. Dover’s Roman engineers, recognizing the superior vantage of the White Cliffs, laid down the earliest thoroughfares that would evolve into today’s streets. These routes were more than mere tracks; they were lifelines connecting the continental mainland to the broader reaches of Roman Britain.
