The Romans at Augusta Park, Andover, Hampshire
Situated in East Anton, just over a mile to the north east of Andover town centre, Augusta Park is part of a major regeneration programme that will bring new schools, colleges, entertainment venues and thousands of new homes to this already well-established and bustling Hampshire town.
About the area
This is an area with its own rich history. Andover is the location of a major crossing point of two important Roman roads, the Portway from Winchester to Marlborough and the Icknield Way, which runs past Augusta Park on its way between Salisbury and Silchester.
The actual site of the crossroads is very close to the development, but excavations in 1970, while revealing many Roman remains, failed to find the exact location.
Specification
A select development in Andover of 2, 3, 4 and 5 bedroom homes.
