These Roman Remains are not exactly what they seem. They are to be found at Virginia Water Lake, a man made drainage lake for the Windsor Estate, part of the Crown Estate. (Of Windsor Castle fame.) Although they are authentic Roman relics, they never originated here. They were brought to England In 1816 from Leptis Magnor near Tripoli in Libya. They were stored in the British Museum until 1826 when they were moved to this site and arranged as they are seen today.
