How do excavations enable archaeologists to reconstruct Leicester's Roman and medieval past? What can they tell us about over two thousand years of history beneath the city's streets? Visions of Ancient Leicester contains a collection of paintings by artist Mike Codd which evocatively bring to life what it would have been like to live in Leicester between the 1st century BC and the 16th century AD.
