Steps to the canal by Morgan's Mount
This area between the city walls and the canal, which had become derelict, was landscaped in the recent past. The area between the steps has been terraced, presumably to represent a Roman style theatre, although there is not much room at the bottom for a performance. The city walls can be seen on the right heading towards the Northgate. Morgan's Mount is a small tower-like structure, immediately behind the camera, that has been closed for some time.

Roman masonry and the city walls
The protruding and substantial lower section of wall is part of the original Roman wall. The ground level is higher than when the wall was first built so there will be more stonework out of sight. The city walls have had to be rebuilt many times over the centuries as can be seen here.

Roman Masonry and the city walls #2
Looking west along the city walls towards Morgan's Mount. The protruding and substantial lower section of wall is part of the original Roman wall but the ground level is higher than when the wall was first built so there will be more stonework out of sight. The city walls have had to be rebuilt many times over the centuries as can be seen here. The footpath is part of the recent landscaping of the area.
