Caerwent history
Roman times
Caerwent was founded by the Romans in AD 75 as a market town for the defeated Silures tribe. The ruins of several Roman buildings are still visible, including the foundations of a 4th-century Roman temple.
Early Christian times
Caerwent translates from Welsh as “fort of Gwent”, and the name Gwent derives from Roman name Venta (Silurum) The name of Winchester has a parallel derivation, ultimately from the combination of the Latin words Venta Belgarum and castra. Excavations have revealed remains and everyday objects from the post-Roman period. It has been suggested that it may have been the birthplace of St Patrick.
