The Roman Roads Research Association is proud to host two conferences to mark the 40^th anniversary of the death of Ivan D. Margary, whose name, through his work “Roman Roads in Britain”, has become synonymous with the study of Roman roads. Perhaps his best known legacy is the numbering system he devised for Roman roads which is still in general use today. In all, his contribution to British archaeology has been profound, and, we feel, not given the national recognition which it deserves.

The programme for the Annual Symposium of the Society has been prepared and is listed here. A booking form pdf is attached.
