York Roman Basilica, c3rd century, (c1990-2010). Reconstruction drawing. The Roman Fortress consisted of a basilica, courtyard and barracks. It would have been here that the governor presided over court cases or addressed his officers on formal occasions. In 306AD, Constantine was visiting the fortress at York when his father died. The Sixth Legion immediately hailed Constantine the next Emperor of the West. This is most likely to have happened in the basilica. | |
