Caerwent is a village in Monmouthshire, Wales. It was founded by the Romans in 75 as Venta Silurum, a market town for the defeated Silures tribe. Large sections of the Roman town walls are still in place. Also you can see Wales from another side, beside the wall. Other attractions in the village include the remains of a Roman temple, while a large former propellant factory, later Royal Air Force/USAF storage base lies nearby. See Royal Navy Propellant Factory, Caerwent
