The city spans 2,000 years of history, from the Roman Baths to 15th century Bath Abbey, and the neo-classical Pulteney Bridge, which was based on a disused sketch for the Rialto in Venice.

The Roman fort at Cardiff was probably established at the end of the 50s AD, on a strategic site that afforded easy access to the sea.
