Now it is a mix of historical structures and modern living with wonderful shops, resturants and stylish lifestyle. While visiting the city one will notice the remains of the city walls, towers still exists today with the best part still surviving behind Stowell Street. The city wall was erected to protect the confines of the city when the Roman fort of Pons Aelius was also built. The remains of the glorious Victorian architecture remains to be seen in Grey Street the most beautiful architecture till date.
