5.2.19 Public Toilets<br />

There are three sets of public toilets situated in the park. These are located at<br />

Abbey View Golf and Track, on the Causeway at the end of the Lake and at<br />

the car park at the Roman Museum.<br />

The public toilets have provision for the disabled, and are opened, cleaned<br />

and inspected through the grounds maintenance contract.<br />

See Appendix 5 - <strong>Park</strong> Building Maintenance Program for further information<br />

5.2.20 Interpretation of Buried Roman Walls and Buildings<br />

Interpretation of the known archaeological features is limited and needs<br />

improving see section 5.2.9. However there is also a need to provide<br />

interpretation for buried sites. In previous years the layout of known Roman<br />

building under the ground has been marked on the grass using a GPS plotter<br />

and sports pitch line marking equipment. We will continue to mark out the<br />

layout of known buildings under the ground. The <strong>Verulamium</strong> Museum<br />

produces an interactive tour of the <strong>Park</strong> and the marked out buildings were an<br />

important feature for the tour.<br />

The Museum Service, with the support of English Heritage plan to investigate<br />

ways to improve interpretation of buried buildings.<br />

In addition, the Council will plant flower meadows along the lines of the Roman<br />

City Wall to provide an educational and interpretational tool for museums.<br />

Working with English Heritage the Council will investigate the feasibility of<br />

conducting grounds maintenance within the guardianship areas on behalf of<br />

English Heritage. This will help to improve the look and feel of these areas as<br />

they will be maintained to the same standard as the rest of the <strong>Park</strong>.<br />
