The Roman Amphitheatre is a well-preserved ancient Roman theatre in Chester, Cheshire, England. Built around 70-80 AD, it is the largest Roman amphitheatre in Britain, measuring 320 feet in length and 270 feet in width. The amphitheatre could hold up to 7,000 spectators who would gather to watch gladiatorial contests, animal hunts, and public executions. The structure features a circular arena surrounded by tiered seating, with a complex system of tunnels and chambers beneath. Although it was abandoned in the 4th century, the amphitheatre remained relatively intact, with many of its original features still visible today.
This is and was created in 1969 costing a staggering PS13,500 but unfortunately ran out of funding before it was finished. It was a shame to have been left would make a great center piece for skelmersdale to be completed to its original design.
A large grass amphitheatre dug out the ground. Certain areas have steps for sitting. Location is part of the Tawd Valley Park and is situated along the River Tawd. Great for walking the dog and picnics. Fantastic for sledging in winter when the snows arrive.
