Roman .. 'Newport arch' ..City of Lincoln.

A view.. of 'Newport arch' which is the most famous of Lincoln's Roman monuments.. it is the only surviving Roman gate in Britain open to traffic and still today acting as a gateway to the historic centre of the city. The smaller arch for pedestrians actually passes beneath the cottage seen in picture.

Magnifique la maison construite derrière le mur dans les mêmes
matériaux et le même style que cette superbe double Arche qui devait servir
de portes d'entrée dans la ville
