About
As part of the Our Stories Project, One to One Development Trust are working with the Castleford Civic Society, Castleford Heritage Trust and Wakefield Museums and Castles to create a new digital experience ‘Roman Castleford Uncovered’. This will showcase the Roman history of the town, focusing on the amazing archaeological collections that are on display in Castleford Museum.
During the Castleford Roman Festival you can visit Queens Mill to find out more and get a preview of the new digital platform in development:
- Have a go with Augmented Reality and meet a Roman soldier
- Take a selfie in your own Roman helmet
- Help play-test a new interactive experience where you uncover Roman treasure or see where the Roman settlements were from our aerial footage of the town.
There will also be some geophysics happening on the site of the Roman Bathhouse where you can chat to volunteers onsite about the Roman archaeology buried below!
