About Chichester

Chichester began as a Roman town. The Romans invaded Britain in 43 AD and about 44 AD they built a fort on the site of Chichester. It was by a source of water (the river Lavant) and close to a harbour so supplies could be brought by ship from France. Soon the Roman army moved on. The king of the local Celtic tribe, Cogidnubus, co-operated with the invading Romans and did not resist them. The Romans left him as a puppet king. After the Romans had left the fort Codignubus decided to take it over and make it into a town.

The Romans called the town Noviomagus, which means new market place. Roman Chichester was laid out on a grid pattern. The main streets formed a cross, which remains today as North, South, East and West Streets. In the centre of the town was the forum, a marketplace lined with shops and public buildings. People in the town used cesspits and obtained their water from wells but in the streets there were drains for rainwater. In the late 2nd century a ditch was dug around Chichester and earth ramparts were erected with a wooden palisade on top. Early in the 3rd century stone walls were built. In the 4th century they were strengthened with bastions, semi-circular towers. A ballistae, a form of giant crossbow, could be mounted on one.
