Join in with this free annual tradition to “Beat the Bounds” of the old Roman Walls! We will be joined by musicians and actors to make it a fun and noisy walk. Bring pots and pans and instruments to join in with the walking and noise making! The Beating of the Bounds is an ancient tradition, derived from a Roman festival dedicated to Terminus, God of Landmarks.
