Colchester

Colchester was built on Gravel Hill, formed in Middle Pleistocene period
Outstanding beauty of The Dedham Vale made popular by J Constable
Local city football team`s stadium is at Cuckoo Farm

Colchester appears in the video Assassin`s Creed Valhalla

Humpty Dumpty is widely credited as coming from this city

Earliest forms of city`s name were Colenceaster and Colneceastre

Streets of Colchester connect us to the rich history of the amazing city

The site of The Romans first major city and capital, Camulodunum

Essex University, brings a youthful energy to the city

Received City status from the late Queen Elizabeth in 2022
