The tombstone of a man named Cunorix, who was laid to rest between 450-475 AD, is now proudly displayed in the museum. Crafted with exquisite detail and preserved through time, this ancient relic offers us a glimpse into the lives and customs of our Roman predecessors. The Cunorix stone stands as a testament to the rich history that once thrived within these walls. Its weathered surface tells stories of battles fought, friendships forged, and lives lived during an era long gone. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back in time to an age where empires rose and fell. Paul Highnam's expert photography captures every intricate line and delicate carving etched onto this treasured piece of history.
