Roman Towns had many buildings and features. The most noticable being the grid road system, which formed empty squares, known as 'insulae', to build on. All towns had a 'basilica' or town hall where the 'ordo', or council, was held. Next to this was a large square called the forum, lined with a covered colonnade, where much of the town's business happened. A public bath was a common feature in the large towns, for anyone from the Roman big-shots to the lowliest plebeian could go. Also a 'mansio' could often be seen. This was a large inn, often on the south side next to the gate, for travellers to use on their way, a good example is the mansio in the ancient Roman town of Silchester. Another feature in the larger towns was the Amphitheatre where the gladiatorial games took place, this was outside the walls of the town. Excellent sewers also lined the city, many of which still are in use today eg. London city. all roman towns also had a market place, as well as two main roads, the Cardo, and the Decimus Maximus. Most roman cities followed a grid like pattern, and many had lots of bath houses for socializing.

∙ 11y agoFeatures of a Roman town were the forum, baths, arena, a basilica, and a temple to the town's patron god/goddess. The new colonies were layed out on a grid system and some claim that they were aligned with the rising sun.
