Excerpt from Exeter
As compared with the sister counties of Cornwall and Dorset, Devonshire is not particularly well repre sented in memorials of the Roman occupation, although an immense number of Roman coins have been un earthed at various times. Coins, however, unless found with definite structural remains, indicate presence rather than a settled occupation, for large quantities of the Roman coinage must have continued in circulation long after the last of the legions of imperial Rome had departed from British shores. The few Roman antiquities of Exeter that have been found are impor tant in a comparative sense, although they contrast poorly in structural character with those of our other romano-british towns. It has been held that not only were the foundations of the city walls Roman, but part of the existing remains of Rougemont Castle have also been assigned to this period.
